My grandma died of pancreatic cancer and, as I recall, it's one of the swifter, more devastating forms of cancer. She was gone within a couple months of the diagnosis.
This is absolutely incredible.
This is absolutely incredible.
The FDA just approved daraxonrasib, a breakthrough drug for advanced pancreatic cancer that doubles survival time.
This is huge: pancreatic cancer was once thought untreatable.
The researchers received a standing ovation when they presented the trial results, unheard of at scientific conferences.

Thanks to research at NIH, childhood cancer cure rates have gone from 10% 50 years ago to almost 80% today.
The current Administration eliminated funding for childhood cancer research in the last continuing resolution.
And is angling to do the same for FY 25 and FY26.

1/2 Spoke to a contact at NIH they have been working tirelessly, day and night, to put together an updated budget for all their studies. It appears that March 14th is a critical date (budget deadline for govt) . Please reach out to your congressional representatives ASAP.

We know all of this because a bunch of nerds sat around messing with all these weird bits in the biology. As a result, we have a bunch of life-saving medicines/surgeries that let us help with many heart and autonomic nervous system problems.

SEVERAL KEY THEMES FROM THE HEARING:
1. Jay is REALLY pushing off accountability on the budget saying that it is "a negotiation between congress and the administration"
I think he is distancing himself from Trump to remain "neutral" & avoid fallout when it (inevitably) comes.

An outspoken vaccine conspiracy theorist just fired every last member of CDC's vaccine advisory committee.
RFK Jr. is paving the way to reshape vaccine policy based not on decades of science, but on his own unhinged fanaticism.
This is unprecedented, and unthinkably dangerous.
