Can mpMRI replace TURBT for faster treatment in MIBC?
A randomized study shows that the mpMRI-first approach reduced the time to treatment by 45 days (53 vs. 98 days). No harm to non-MIBC patients. A game-changer for staging? #Oncology @oncoalert.bsky.social

Comprehensive genomic characterization of early-stage bladder cancer - Nature Genetics A genomic and transcriptomic analysis of nonmuscle-invasive bladder cancer identifies four molecular subtypes, and associates whole-genome duplication and immune exhaustion with tumor progression.

I am excited to share our latest publication in Nature Genetics @naturegenet.bsky.social, marking a significant milestone in the UROMOL project—a 15+ year collaborative effort to characterize the biology of early-stage bladder cancer.

A huge thank you to all the contributing authors for making this possible!

This interdisciplinary resource is aimed at both early-career and experienced researchers and clinicians, offering an in-depth exploration of the biology, pathology, and clinical aspects of bladder cancer.

The book will be available in early January: lnkd.in/deAPPmc7

Key topics
🧬 Epidemiology and genetic predisposition
🔍 Mutational events and molecular pathogenesis
🧪 Tumor subtypes and experimental models
🧫 The role of the tumor microenvironment in disease progression
🩸 Novel urine- and blood-based biomarkers
💊 Cutting-edge therapeutic approaches

“Biology of Bladder Cancer: From Molecular Insights to Clinical Strategies” provides a comprehensive update on our current understanding of bladder cancer, from its biology and clinical manifestations to novel treatment strategies.

Excited to share the release of a new book on bladder cancer that I had the pleasure of editing together with Margaret Knowles, featuring contributions from multiple expert authors!

‘A place of joy’: why scientists are joining the rush to Bluesky Researchers say the social-media platform — an alternative to X — offers more control over the content they see and the people they engage with.
