We have an exciting SRA post opening in Bristol using reverse Mendelian randomization to identify novel early detection biomarkers in cancer. Deadline to apply 9 Oct. Get in touch if interested! Philip Haycock 🎗 @Karl_SmithByrne Richard Martin & others ICEP

We are #hiring #postdocs! We are a young, dynamic group that uses #organoids to study #neuroendocrine cell #development and #cancer in the context of environmental #exposures and Human Ecosystems @EMBL together with Isidro Cortes-Ciriano . Join us EMBL Barcelona embl.org/jobs/position/…

#quitting #smoking has a huge #impact on #cancer #survival . Which #CancerTreatment increases survival by 2-3 years & improves survival across cancer stages (2nd photo)? YES #smoking #cessation! Thanks ENSP for #8ENSPECTC in Florence 🇮🇹 More info on IARC studies👇

This week IARC hosted the 20th annual meeting of the International Lung Cancer Cohort Consortium (ILCCO), which brings together data and samples from around the world to study the #etiology, #prevention, and #earlydetection of #lungcancer. Learn more 👉 ilcco.iarc.who.int

Incident cancers attributable to using #opium and smoking cigarettes in the Golestan cohort study Using opium and cigarettes account for a large proportion of cancers in this population. Prevention policies should aim to decrease use of both substances. thelancet.com/journals/eclin…

Our IARC study shows for #CancerControl in LMICs we have to search for/target #Local #Cancer #RiskFactors. Cancer burden is highest in LMICs where lifestyle/exposures are different. #opium use accounts for a large proportion of cancers in #Iran Link: thelancet.com/journals/eclin…

I’m glad to be in Bristol this week for the MR conference, and even more happy as I gave my first external talk, on Obesity and Kidney cancer! Thanks to the organizers of the #mrconf24, to our funders and to my team! If you are in the MR conf and want to chat, do not hesitate!
