Joan Brugge, director of the Ludwig Cancer Center at Harvard Medical School, has dedicated 50 years to groundbreaking cancer research, focusing on preventing breast cancer. Her work has been instrumental in uncovering how tumors form and resist treatment, leading to innovative therapies. However, last spring, Brugge received a devastating email stating that two of her federal grants from the National Institutes of Health, totaling millions annually, were terminated. This decision was unrelated to the quality or progress of her research but was part of broader issues concerning diversity and anti-Semitism at Harvard. Brugge expressed her shock, stating, "It was just like a gut punch." Her team's work had identified the earliest precursors of breast cancer, aiming to find treatments to eliminate mutated cells and ultimately prevent cancer. The cancellation of funding threatens the continuation of this vital research.#CancerResearch #BreastCancer #HarvardMedicalSchool #JoanBrugge #NIHGrants #ScientificFunding #DiversityIssues #AntiSemitism #InnovativeTherapies #PublicHealth #ResearchFunding #HealthcareInnovation—Here’s a hint:➡️ In 2025, the oncology market (aka all “C” treatments, drugs, diagnostics, etc) was valued at about $250.88 BILLION 😳➡️ “C” drug industry ALONE profits an estimated $172 BILLION in 2025 🤯➡️ And here’s the real kicker—early forecasts project that the oncology field will profit by an estimated $668.26 BILLION by the year 2034 🤯🤯And there you have your answer, friends.They do NOT care about our health. We have had the ability to find cures and treatments for “C” for a very, very long time……But the medical and pharmaceutical industry would lose so much profit from our health—which is why they’d rather keep us sick 😎✌🏼 repost @unwokemama111Help this information get to more voters. 🇺🇸 A well-informed electorate is a prerequisite to Democracy.—Thomas JeffersonView all 3,578 comments
