I've mentioned before that my father was a 13-year survivor of pancreatic cancer who had participated in clinical studies and survived a recurrence. We lost him last week at age 68, soon after another recurrence. legacy.com/us/obituaries/…

As this site withers, I want to leave here an external link to the original Twitter thread I published on James Cates in 2018 that many have used for research over the years. It's also linked on my portfolio website, mikeogleonline.com. Thread: threadreaderapp.com/thread/1055833…
