Dear Michelle Donelan MP -

As Science Minister, I think you owe the UK science community an apology for this nasty propaganda which undermines the community you are charged with representing.

RT if you agree...

I am very happy to share a new preprint together with Iftikhar Ahmed, David Dingli and WeiniHuang that just came out

biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

In it we discuss how a hierarchical tissue structure changes clonal fitness over time.

Looking forward to hosting this discussion next week! Always so much fun to talk with Alex Cagan !

So much has happened in the comp onc space following Alex Cagan's exciting paper! James DeGregori & I will join them for what should be an awesome conversation on how we make sense of all these recent discoveries

Do larger, longer lived organisms get more cancer? Athena Aktipis will talk with Alex Cagan about his recent Nature paper “Somatic mutation rates scale with lifespan across mammals” in a livestream on 5th October 4:30pm EST.
