This is figure 2, which shows immigrant–native earnings differences after basic adjustments and within industry, occupation, establishment and job by world region of origin.
Immigrant workers, on average, are earning 17.9% less than a country’s native population, according to a paper in Nature. Three-quarters of the pay gap between the two correspond to a lack of accessible high-paying jobs for immigrants. go.nature.com/4nYgb0a #econsky 🧪

Paired primary-metastasis patient-derived organoids and mouse models identify phenotypic evolution and druggable dependencies of peritoneal metastasis from appendiceal cancer
Peritoneal carcinomatosis is a common yet deadly manifestation of gastrointestinal cancers, with few effective treatments. To identify targetable determinants of peritoneal metastasis, we focused on appendiceal adenocarcinoma (AC), a gastrointestinal cancer that metastasizes almost exclusively to the peritoneum. Current treatments are extrapolated from colorectal cancer (CRC), yet AC has distinct genomic alterations, mucinous morphology and peritoneum restricted metastatic pattern. Further, no stable preclinical models of AC exist, limiting drug discovery and representing an unmet clinical need. We establish a first-in-class stable biobank of 16 long-term cultured AC patient-derived organoids (PDOs), including 3 matched, simultaneously resected primary AC-peritoneal carcinomatosis (AC-PC) pairs. By enriching for cancer cells, AC PDOs enable accurate genomic characterization relative to paucicellular AC tissue. We establish an organoid orthotopic intraperitoneal xenograft model that recapitulates diffuse peritoneal carcinomatosis and show that PC-organoids retain increased metastatic capacity, decreased growth factor dependency and sensitivity to standard of care chemotherapy relative to matched primary AC organoids. Single cell profiling of AC-PC pairs reveals dedifferentiation from mucinous differentiated states in primary AC into intestinal stem cell and fetal progenitor states in AC-PC, with upregulation of oncogenic signaling pathways. Through hypothesis-driven drug testing, we identify KRASMULTI-ON inhibitor RMC-7977 and Wnt-targeting tyrosine kinase inhibitor WNTinib as novel, clinically actionable strategies to target AC-PC more effectively. ### Competing Interest Statement K.G. is listed as an inventor on US patent 11,464,874, and US provisional patent applications 63/478,809 and 63/478,829 on targeting L1CAM to treat cancer, submitted by MSKCC.

Progressive plasticity during colorectal cancer metastasis - Nature
Colorectal cancer metastasis involves dramatic plasticity and loss of PROX1-mediated repression of non-intestinal lineages.
2/Discover how colorectal cancer evolves during metastasis. This study reveals metastases shifting from stem-like to fetal progenitor states, driving squamous & neuroendocrine traits linked to poor outcomes.
