Hot laps with Formula 1 driver Liam Lawson has raised more than $50,000 for breast cancer research.

Lawson got behind the wheel of supercars including the Aston Martin Vulcan - the only one in the southern hemisphere - and the Porsche GT3, offering rides to passengers during a silent auction.

Highlighting the importance of research on World Breast Cancer Research Day. Supporting scientists working towards prevention, treatment, and cures. #BreastCancerResearch #EndCancer #Science ๐Ÿ”ฌ๐Ÿฉท

Today, on World Breast Cancer Research Day (August 18), we honor the life-changing work of researchers, clinicians, survivors, and advocates who drive progress toward a world without breast cancer. Research has given us earlier detection, more effective treatments, and better survivorship care โ€” but the fight doesnโ€™t stop in October.

Join us in supporting clinical trials, donating to accredited research funds, and sharing trusted information about screening and risk reduction. Remember: 1 in 8 women in the U.S. will develop invasive breast cancer in her lifetime, and 85% of cases occur in women with no family history โ€” which makes continued research essential for everyone. Today and every day, letโ€™s invest in science, uplift survivors and caregivers, and push for sustained funding so future generations can live breast cancer-free.

๐Ÿงช Breakthrough in breast cancer research

Researchers at the University of Liรจge identified ferroptosisโ€”a form of programmed cell deathโ€”as a potential treatment for HR+ HER2- metastatic breast cancer resistant to CDK4/6 inhibitors & hormone therapy.

Their findings show ferroptosis inducers can target resistant cells, paving the way for precision medicine. Clinical trials could be next!

New research Shows Ferroptosis Inducers Can Reverse Resistance of the Luminal Metastatic Hormone Positive Breast Cancer

A study led by researchers at Dr Nor Eddine Sounniโ€™s team has uncovered a potential strategy to overcome resistance in a common and challenging subtype of metastatic breast cancer.

Some breast cancer patients can avoid certain surgeries, studies suggest

Some early breast cancer patients can safely avoid certain surgeries. That's according to two studies published Thursday that explore ways to lessen treatment burdens. One new study examines whether removing lymph nodes is always necessary in early breast cancer. Another suggests a new approach to a type of breast cancer called ductal carcinoma in situ, or DCIS. The research is being discussed at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium. The lymph nodes study appears in the New England Journal of Medicine. The DCIS study appears in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
