Why have we not found a cure for cancer?

🥷 Cancer is an adaptable disease

ꙮ Cancer is not one disease.
✖︎Cancer data is siloed.

❆ If you are curing cancer, switch to Jori.

🌧 We are rainmakers 🌧

By far the best summary of AI's impact on "published" research in 2024.

Reading & writing is 60% of all research. When the verbiage is left to the machines, the thing that matters the most is quality of work & impact.

If you are curing cancer, come do the best work of your life with us.

Submitting grants last minute? Good.

(blue = submits) & (red = got $).

🐎 Almost all the $ grants were submitted in the last 4 days
📆 Someone actually submitted a MONTH before 😂
✏️ Grants are submitted by the host Institution, not so much the PI. Take this with a grain of salt.

How to write a good grant?

1. Write it for the reviewer, not you, the applicant.
2. Communicate in stories.
3. Make your story cohesive—leave no puzzling gaps.
4. Make your story resonate to keep the reviewer reading.
5. Accept chance and noise in peer-review.

"How did that stupid reviewer miss it? Those details are clearly there on page-4. Do they not read?"

📝 When you are new to writing papers, there is a strong compulsion to write down every important thought as they appear in whatever section you are currently writing at that time.

That moment has arrived. My go to place to share & discover scientific ideas is now Bluesky (where X used to be).

It’s so refreshing to have a concentrated community of science folks.

I love you all.

Do HARD things. You’ll be amazed at how far you’ll go.

📖 In scientific circles, one is constantly reminded that the system works as a zero sum publish-or-perish game. Obsessing over volume shifts focus away from quality & impact.

I've lost folks to cancer. They cannot be replaced. One in two of us will be diagnosed with it in our lifetime. Let's find a different end to this story.
