Great work from Ayesha Shafi, PhD Center for Prostate Disease Research hitting AR coactivators to initiate DNA damage and overall superior tumor response šš¼

This thought-provoking set of rules for science by a Nobel Prize winner would be fascinating to discuss on the Night Science Podcast! The Night Science Podcast

Study in PNASNews (bit.ly/4h3SpLy) by Johns Hopkins Medicine The Johns Hopkins Brady Urological Institute & Uni of Reading UoR BioSci dispels 45-yr-old #PetosParadox claiming no link btwn animal size & #cancer rates. Data say larger species have more tumors. PCF funded. More at bit.ly/43afEQI


A new study challenges Petoās Paradox, which says larger animals are no more likely to get cancer than smaller ones. Dr. Sarah Amend from Johns Hopkins Medicine joins us to discuss the findings and what studying animal cancer rates could teach scientists. buff.ly/41jn9SO

The dual capacity for cancers to metastasize and resist systemic treatment is the tipping point for driving lethal cancer. Drs. Pienta, Goodin & Amend explore how eco-evolutionary principles can guide new interventions: acsjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.33⦠Kenneth Pienta Sarah R. Amend, Ph.D. OncoAlert
