But where does this data come from? Clinician-driven studies like this TFRI-MOHCCN supported long-read sequencing project led by Dr. Zogopoulos, producing genomic data to uncover unknown inherited mutations linked to gastro-esophageal cancer, helping identify people at higher risk. buff.ly/f97tzyB

Smarter, personalized diabetes care:
“researchers have trained AI [and] created a tool that looks at simple characteristics, like sex and weight, to match each individual with type 2 diabetes to the blood glucose-lowering drug most likely to work for them.” www.diabetes.org.uk/our-research...

What is neuroendocrine cancer?
“– tumours arising from various hormone-secreting glands in the body. These tumours are difficult to diagnose because they can present with a wide variety of physical signs that are not specific to cancerous tumours.” buff.ly/TjHPLNp
