What if a single drop of blood could help us detect cancer sooner?

Our DC6, Bahareh Soleimanpour, is back from a summer refresh to show us her work on Dynamic Chemical Labelling (DCL), a faster & cheaper way to find early signs of colorectal cancer.

🔍 Screening or not?
For colorectal cancer, it’s a clear yes.

But in ML, screening predictive features to model lifestyle exposures is trickier.

Stay tuned for a preprint by Diana Wu & Vivian Viallon (IARC)!
