Most patients with extrapancreatic neuroendocrine tumors or pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors eventually have disease progression with available therapies, and new treatments are needed. Research findings are summarized in a new Quick Take video. youtu.be/v4VemREn1QM

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.
If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Excited to share a new paper from our lab 😀
We investigate the tumor microenvironment - to reveal factors influencing cancer progression & therapy response 🔬🧪
So we naturally wanted to ask - does the gut #microbiome influence brain #metastasis 🦠 🧠?

It would be a real dereliction of duty to our nation's children to invite the return of vaccine-preventable diseases. Bringing polio, measles, diphtheria, under control is something we have been working on for a century -- successfully.

Without a noble purpose the ship of democracy has been set adrift in a raging storm. The only question is can the ship correct course in time or will the damage be so great that it will split under the pressure and sink. Americans are trying to find their footing as the storm has begun.
