Pathways to Prevention Workshop: Nutrition as Prevention for Improved Cancer Health Outcomes (Day 3)
As many as 80% of people with cancer experience malnutrition, but nutritional screening and interventions aren't standard parts of outpatient cancer care in the United States. More research is needed to inform development of guidelines and services for the prevention and treatment of cancer-associated malnutrition. Workshop speakers will discuss the current scientific evidence on how nutritional interventions affect cancer health outcomes. After the workshop, an independent panel will draft a report on evidence gaps and identify priorities for future research.For more information go tohttps://prevention.nih.gov/P2P-Nutriti...

Marathons for T Cells: How They Keep on Killing
This WALS talk is jointly sponsored with the IIG. Dr. Griffiths is a Wellcome Trust Principal Research Fellow and a professor of immunology and cell biology at Cambridge Institute for Medical Research. For this lecture, Dr. Griffiths will focus on the cell biology that underlies the remarkable ability of cytotoxic T lymphocytes to act as serial killers, with individual cells providing sustained killing in response to cancer or virally infected targets. She will describe a screen that picked up genes that are required for sustained killing and revealed an unexpected role for mitochondria as homestatic regulators of CTL kill...

Researchers are working to improve radiologists ’ interpretation of AI data.
The wide range of applications for artificial intelligence alone are impressive. Researchers used mammograms of breast cancer to compare radiologists and AI assessments, to understand how AI and humans look at the images and find regions of potential concern. They learned, when you pair up human ...This is an NSF Multimedia Gallery item. (Source: NSF Multimedia Gallery)

Well-Being and the Economic Burden of Disease: What Are We Learning From Cancer Survivors?
With increases in early detection and improved cancer treatments, we can now celebrate that many survivors can lead a full and healthy life after completing treatment. But we also know that the cancer journey can be stressful from diagnosis onward and well into survivorship. A major area of stress is finances, such as stress from increased medical costs and possibly reduced income and work productivity. The impact of “ financial toxicity ” on patient well-being is an emerging area of research.
Among Dr. Martin ’ s projects, she is multiple principal investigator of the Emotional Well-Being and Economic Burden Resea...
