Thank you to @CBSNews for highlighting our #research!
For many patients with muscle-invasive #BladderCancer, the standard of care is neoadjuvant systemic therapy followed by curative surgery to remove the bladder. For selected patients, bladder-preserving approaches are already an option, and the field is working to expand who can safely benefit.
Our #research at @WeillCornell @nyphospital combines patient-derived cancer organoids with AI to create “bio-digital avatars” of each patient's cancer.
This is team science, bringing together clinicians, laboratory scientists, computational biologists and mathematicians. We envision that these technologies could eventually help predict each patient’s response to treatment. Rigorous prospective validation will be essential before they can guide routine clinical care. @Cornell @WCMGUcancer @WCMEnglanderIPM @WCM_MeyerCancer @BladderCancerUS #FaltasLab

What if doctors could test cancer treatments on your tumor, without putting a single one of those treatments into your body? CBS News’ Riley Callanan reports.

Excited to share our latest review in @NatureRevUrol. As the landscape of bladder-preserving therapies rapidly expands, the next frontier in #NMIBC is not simply developing new agents, but understanding how best to combine and sequence them to maximize durable responses and minimize progression. @paolo_gontero @JoshMeeks @SBoorjian @WesKassouf @BladderCancerUS @IBCG_BladderCA @WorldBladderCan https://t.co/JsoimuiYOm

Congratulations @ElementoLab on the NIH Director's Pioneer Award! Very well deserved for your contributions and for an ambitious, exciting program that opens a new way to pursue scientific discovery with AI. @WeillCornell @WCMEnglanderIPM @NIH

[Olivier Elemento @ElementoLab]

Big news today: I am deeply honored to receive the NIH Director's Pioneer Award, one of only seven given this year across all fields! We will build an AI engine that generates cancer hypotheses from human data and tests them with robots in tumor organoids https://t.co/n4rqtssmYB
