As a cancer researcher I approve!

🤩🎉🧬The Observer Magazine have covered an Nature Genetics paper that I had the pleasure of handling. Excited for Sarah Moody Mike Stratton Paul Brennan @josh_atkins311 and all the team Wellcome Sanger Institute Cancer Grand Challenges IARC 🔗theguardian.com/science/2021/o…

💬 "#CancerResearch starts with the patient and ends with the patient. All this has been done for the patient's benefit" Patient advocates remind researchers of the people behind the samples, and remind us why we do this work 🧬🔬 Cancer Grand Challenges Wellcome Connecting Science Engagement and Society sangerinstitute.blog/2021/10/25/hun…

#ICYMI - unexpected findings from the Cancer Grand Challenges Mutographs team surrounding environmental triggers in the development of oesophageal cancer around the world. Sarah Moody offers her thoughts 👇 cancergrandchallenges.org/news/unravelli…

We made the November cover of Nature Genetics! It's so beautiful!!!!! Nature Genetics Great idea from @josh_atkins311 to have the skylines from the 8 countries included in our study!

Great to see our mutational signature paper on oesophageal cancer making the cover of November Nature Genetics . The figure illustrates what we were hoping to see, ie divergent patterns informing about causes of oesophageal cancer in high risk regions 1/4.

Great work from my colleague Sergey IARC who developed an optimized method for attributing mutational signatures - used in our recent ESCC paper bmcbioinformatics.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

In January 2021, Saamin Cheema started a new job at the Wellcome Sanger Institute with the Cancer Grand Challenges Mutographs team. Here she talks about her first year working with the team and her thoughts about the Science Museum Cancer Revolution exhibition: mutographs.org/2022/01/11/202…

I am organizing this fundraiser for Emergency in memory of my husband who passed away in January. Please RT. gofund.me/5e9aee75

Back at the science museum with Victoria Derbyshire getting Behind the Science with Cancer Research UK funded scientists Emilia Lim Sarah Moody and Elinor Sawyer. Terrific discussion and progress. The Francis Crick Institute King's College London Wellcome Sanger Institute Cancer Grand Challenges

Jst hosted Cancer Research UK’s #BehindtheScience event. 3 scientists, Dr Sarah Moody, Dr Emilia Lim & Professor Elinor Sawyer, doing vital research into why cancers develop in partic ways, gene mutation, precision treatments & more A M A Z I N G work. 3 total legends #CRUK

2. Our director, David Scott welcomed attendees, and Sarah Moody from Wellcome Sanger Institute ran introductions, ice-breakers, networking. A soft launch of the conference ahead of a jam-packed agenda tomorrow! 🙌 Thanks to Bjorn Saven Future Leaders Fund for making this event possible.

Congrats #CancerGrandChallenges team Mutographs on their paper in nature today! Showing the power of their mutational epidemiology approach, they uncovered mutational signatures underlying global variance in #KidneyCancer incidence rates. Read: nature.com/articles/s4158… (1/5)
