Terrible gansada

Screenshot of a tweet by Rep. Ro Khanna (@RoKhanna) praising a breakthrough in pancreatic cancer research, calling it "the best of America" and noting that lead researcher Dr. Balachandran is the son of Indian immigrants and works at Sloan Kettering. He quote-tweets Ian Weissman, DO (@DrIanWeiss...), who reports that an mRNA pancreatic cancer vaccine showed lasting results in an early trial, with nearly all responding patients still alive six years later.

Science leads to amazing breakthroughs. Immigrants lead to amazing science.

Figure showing number of competitive grants mentioning women from 2015-2025. The number was rising until recently, with a precipitous drop in the last year.

At the end of 2024, the National Academies put out a report concluding the NIH has woefully underfunded women’s health research, and they suggested $15 B should be invested over the next 5 years.

Here’s what’s happened instead. Hard to study women’s health if you can’t say “women.”

anyone who knew someone with pancreatic cancer knows how big of a deal this is

Your gut bugs, your microbiome, might predict if melanoma comes back after surgery & immunotherapy. Early study of 674 pts showed the *mix* of bacteria was 94% accurate at predicting recurrence. Personalized treatment maybe someday?

"Resulta comico cuando a amigos de EEUU le 'da lastima' los impuestos q pagamos en Noruega. Si pagamos + pero tenemos salud y educacion publica de calidad y 49 semanas de licencia x mat/paternidad y no necesitamos recibir caridad para tratarnos un cancer.
La matematica no es tan complicada"

That’s why the republicans keep voting health care down! Republicans know we pay for their life style

Le Darfour, calvaire des Soudanaises victimes d’esclavage sexuel Trois ans après le début de la guerre au Soudan, les routes qui permettent de fuir les combats sont un piège pour les femmes, enlevées et violées par les combattants du général Hemetti. Celles qui atteignent les camps de réfugiés du Tchad témoignent de l’enfer traversé.
