New from the Kuperwasser Lab in Stem Cell Reports! We found that DDR1 & RUNX1 control how breast stem cells build tissue—and when this goes wrong, it may lay the groundwork for cancer. Huge congrats to our amazing team! 💥 cell.com/stem-cell-repo…

BREAKING: MIT just completed the first brain scan study of ChatGPT users & the results are terrifying. Turns out, AI isn't making us more productive. It's making us cognitively bankrupt. Here's what 4 months of data revealed: (hint: we've been measuring productivity all wrong)

This paper links glyphosate, the main ingredient in Roundupit to early-onset leukemia and multiple cancers. It is clearly carcinogenic and it's found in 80% of people tested—including pregnant women and infants!!! It's time to ban its use. ehjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

How can we seriously talk about the future of cancer research when our community continues to remain silent about the implications of DNA contamination with SV40 promoter and expression plasmid sequence in the COVID19 vaccines. It gets into cells, it integrates- so why is this…

CT scans in women aged 18–49 are projected to cause nearly 4,000 additional breast cancers, including 1,700 in women just 18–29. These are doses we often call "safe"—but they’re adding up. We’ve long known—from atomic bomb survivors and Hodgkin lymphoma patients—that radiation…

This is insane …CT-associated cancers could eventually account for 5% of all new cancer diagnoses annually!!!!

It’s about time

Strong association between exposure to air pollutants like polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, indoor toxins like formaldehyde and higher cancer risk — particularly for breast, prostate, and even melanoma. It won’t be long until other EDCs are shown to drive the higher…
