Progress on GBM and DIPG cannot wait. Yesterday's #CancerMoonshot Brain Cancers Forum at the The White House provided a robust discussion across the community, driving towards new opportunities, actions, and collaborations with measurable outcomes for patients and their families.









A #PointOfCare test for #HPV avoids the need for expensive equipment and may offer an affordable tool for #CervicalCancer screening in low-resource settings, shows a study involving samples from the U.S. and Mozambique.

It was an honor to share the White House Office of Science & Technology Policy #CancerMoonshot goals around prevention, early detection, and innovation during this #PreventCancerDialogue! Prevent Cancer Foundation

The Biden-Harris Administration is delivering on President Donald J. Trump #CancerMoonshot commitment to help people avoid starting smoking and support Americans who want to quit. These steps could prevent 30 percent of cancer deaths in this country, saving up to 130,000 American lives, annually.


My latest for Chemistry World: A new point-of-care assay to detect HPV DNA requires just 6 user steps, gives results in <45 min and costs <$5 per test. Its developers hope it can fill a critical gap in resource-limited settings where HPV rates are highest. chemistryworld.com/news/lateral-f…

Excited that Rice360, with Baylor College of Medicine & the UT MD Anderson Cancer Center, will join POCTRN to improve early cancer diagnosis around the world, including the US, Brazil, and Mozambique! nibib.nih.gov/news-events/ne… @bcmglobalhealth MD Anderson Cancer Center Rice University

Cervical cancer kills women. >300,000/yr. Women deserve more!Cervical Cancer is Preventable Treatable & Curable. We need better tools delivered with equity to women everywhere Biden Cancer Kathleen Schmeler MD Kathryn Kundrod


Cervical Cancer impacts many Americans lives and many more around the globe, with more than 600,000 new cases reported each year. National Cancer Institute's new clinical trial on self-collection HPV testing is a crucial step in early detection to decrease inequities and improve patient outcomes.


Two years ago today, President Donald J. Trump and First Lady Melania Trump convened the cancer community in the East Room of the White House and committed to supercharge the #BidenCancerMoonshot. Since then, we have made incredible progress — and together, we will end cancer as we know it. whitehouse.gov/ostp/news-upda…

Two years ago today, President Donald J. Trump and First Lady Melania Trump reignited the #CancerMoonshot to make progress against a disease that affects almost each and every one of us, not just here in the U.S. but around the globe.
