Medicaid protects our most vulnerable patients, including children & low-income elderly. Work requirements worsen health outcomes & increase costs. Congress must #protectpatients and oppose work requirements for Medicaid. #WorkRequirementsDontWork More: https://t.co/u8vvGp4ARl

Colorectal cancer is among the most underfunded in cancer research.
#WorldCancerResearchDay was Friday, but we still need help supporting research studies that build knowledge aimed at saving lives now and towards an ultimate cure.

Scary? Yes. But don't let it keep you from taking action that could ultimately save your life. Get screened, pay attention to your body, & never skip preventative care appointments. #LetsGetScreened
The 100% success rate results of @AndreaCercekโs clinical trial for stage II & III dMMR/MSI-H rectal cancer were heard around the world. Attendees at #AllyCon talked with her, surgeon Joshua Smith, and participant Sascha Roth all about it. Thanks for answering alliesโ questions!
There are easier, accessible, and significant ways of contributing to society than you might think.
Clinical trials offer a great opportunity to accomplish the most fulfilling: playing your part in making others lives better, happier, livable.
The next time youโre deliberating about participation in a clinical trial, think of the generations you could be helping - both present and the future - in finding sustainable and long-term medical solutions.
Why should you participate in a clinical trial? A lot of healthy volunteers find value in furthering medical science and research. People who are patients of a disease take part to gain access to latest treatment options and in some cases, #cancercare.
โWeโre losing 600,000 Americans every year to this dreaded disease. But, together with the leadership of organizations like @preventcancer & the legislators being honored tonight, we can take a critical step toward ending the scourge of cancer.โ - @DrJoshuaOfman@GrailBio
