My mother participated in this study. I collaborated with WHI to study obesity and aging on gut microbiome populations in postmenopausal women. This is a giant loss for science and women’s health.
President Donald Trump’s administration appears to be killing much, if not all, of a historic initiative that was the first, and is still the largest, National Institutes of Health effort centered on the health needs of women. scim.ag/4jLeLTJ
NIH cancels its first and largest study centered on women
The Women’s Health Initiative has produced numerous influential findings

Please call your Congressmen today to tell them that you support children's cancer research and not to cut Dept of Defense CDMRP funding for cancer research. Vote No on the job-killing, kid-killing Continuing Resolution (CR) tomorrow. Also breast cancer, prostate cancer, Parkinson’s research, etc.

As a recent joiner to 🦋, I’d thought I’d share a recent @theaacr.bsky.social TME interest group interview to introduce myself and our group’s 🧪 research interest.

First publication of 2025 deserves my first ever post on Bluesky.
Do not miss the review by K. Cook and colleagues at Wake Forest University that discusses the role of #GutMicrobiota in #BreastCancer therapeutic outcomes!
