[Breast Cancer Canada @BreastCancerCDN]

Meet Breast Cancer Canada Researcher, Dr. Rama Khokha.

Scientist Dr. Rama Khokha at @pmcancercentre has devoted her research to molecular cancer prevention.

Last year, Breast Cancer Canada witnessed the power of her innovation first-hand. In June, Breast Cancer Canada announced $3 million funding for the 3P Precision Prevention Progress Project, led by Dr. Khokha.

Her research focuses on identifying new risk factors and developing screening methods to detect cancer at an earlier stage, and will lead to future prevention strategies for breast cancer patients everywhere.

Check out @c_mccloskey1's awesome work out now on biorxiv on mammary biology and cancer prevention!! Grateful to have been a part of this! 🎉

[Curtis McCloskey @c_mccloskey1]

Excited to share our discovery of an epithelial progenitor population in the human breast! FABP7+ ductal luminal progenitors have distinct and targetable metabolism, and are the projected root of aberrant differentiation in the BRCA1 breast. @rmkhokha 1/9

Excited to share our work “Insulin Receptor Loss Impairs Mammary Tumorigenesis in Mice“. Led by @LaurenMPodmore and @KatPlz, our study reveals a major function of INSR in breast/mammary tumour initiation, likely independent of its kinase activity.https://t.co/ErPwZ79ip2

🧬 Our new study on how "Spatial tumor immune heterogeneity facilitates subtype co-existence and therapy response via AP1 dichotomy" is out now on @biorxivpreprint 🎉! Collaborative work of @ShivKSingh6 and @BarbaraGrnwald labs 🧪 Let's dive into the key findings! 🧵

[Temerty Centre for AI in Medicine (T-CAIREM) @UofT_TCAIREM]

🎉 An exciting new study led by T-CAIREM members @bhaibeka and @BoWang87 and UofT student researchers successfully reproduced and applied a new #ArtificialIntelligence (#AI) method. The research was supported by the @UofTDSI.

A team led by @bhaibeka @UHN compared 12 different machine learning models for predicting outcomes of head and neck cancer patients.

Using data from over 2,500 patients, the best model had a high accuracy in predicting 2-year and lifetime survival. #AI >> https://t.co/LAh7CSMW57

Best quote from the GRC so far: "No one believes in a model except the person who makes it, and everyone believes in an experiment except the person who performs it"😆
