Promising news from #AACR23: Moderna's personalized mRNA cancer vaccine plus Keytuda lowered risk of recurrence or death after surgery by 44% in people with advanced melanoma.
Cancer vaccines are a fascinating area of research -- the mRNA technology used for COVID vaccines was actually first developed for cancer -- and they're likely to be much better tolerated than current cancer treatments.

There have been some exciting updates this weekend at #AACR23 on DDR and Breast Cancer‼️
So the discussion🗣️by @JenniferLitton & @marijasullivan tomorrow, 04/18/2023 at 8PM on treating early stage BRCA-mutated Breast Cancer is very timely⏲️
You might also find me hanging out at the #StandardBioTools, #NanoString or #Akoya booths.
I also contributed to a cool poster on RNA / Protein #multiplex in Head & Neck Cancer if that's your jam.
I will be at #AACR23. Want to talk neurofibromatosis, data sharing, ChatGPT, open science, anything else? Ping me for a meetup!
Also, consider checking out my talk on Sunday during the Project GENIE session about the 2022 @ChildrensTumor
