If we want to thoughtfully reduce NIH indirect costs, we need to reduce the federal regulatory burden that causes universities to hire so many administrators to remain compliant.

1/5 Sharing our Clinical Cancer Research work establishing serum CA-125 as a biomarker for #RenalMedullaryCarcinoma. This is now the first cancer-associated blood biomarker to become standard of care and used globally for a #kidneycancer : aacrjournals.org/clincancerres/… The V Foundation for Cancer Research Chris Johnson Foundation Inc.

Couldn’t agree more - it’s critical to send molecular profiling studies for rare tumors. For appendix cancer profiling the TME in addition to tumor is going to help identify the best ways to use novel immune therapies

Thank you Cancer Today AACR for featuring our recent ESMO - Eur. Oncology Real World Data & Digital Oncology study on the portrayal of cancer in public figures in news stories. The public should be cognizant that many news articles lack pertinent details on an individual's diagnosis,

I'm thrilled to share our new meta-analysis! Primarily including CRC and pancreatic cancer patients, it shows that omitting 5-FU bolus from chemotherapy regimens maintains PFS and OS while reducing risks of G3-4 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

✍️ Writing is thinking. 👉🏼A powerful editorial in Nature Reviews Bioengineering (Vol. 3, p. 431, 2025) reminds us of something timeless: in science, writing is far more than reporting results. It’s a way of sharpening thought. 👉🏼Even in an age shaped by large-language models,

Another new paper out! Grateful to have been a part of the effort. We (Andrew Pellatt and Arvind Dasari) asked: Can TAS-102 eliminate ctDNA-defined MRD in CRC after adjuvant chemo? 💊 Single-arm phase II study of CRC pts with MRD by ctDNA after curative-intent therapy (Stage
