Cancer cells leverage epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) to promote treatment resistance and metastasis.
Results from a recent MD Anderson study found that EMT is a necessary step for pancreatic tumors to become malignant. Learn more: brnw.ch/21wR9Zv #EndCancer

It’s nearly impossible to describe how severe a cut this is for universities.
And all through executive action. The university lobbyists, that they relied on to recruit bipartisan support in Congress for so long, have no traction here.

That "immortal time" is so frequent in survival analyses for #causalinference is fascinating.
Because "immortal time" doesn't exist in the data, *we* create it when misanalyzing the data.
Our new paper pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39494894/ summarizes why immortal time arises & how to prevent it.
