This is figure 1, which shows a map of the global burden of female breast cancer in 2022.

At present, 1 in 20 women globally are diagnosed with breast cancer, and a projected 1 in 70 may are likely to die from the disease in their lifetime, suggests research published in Nature Medicine. https://go.nature.com/4hPNwXD #Medsky 🧪

#ESTALMAT is a project of the Spanish Royal Academy of Sciences @raciencias.bsky.social for detection and encouragement of mathematical talent in 12-13 years old students. They visited our research institite to learn about #DNA 🧪💻🧬 #outreach @javierbuceta.bsky.social @pathogenomics.bsky.social

I think people both within science and outside science don’t fully appreciate the miracle that were the Covid-19 vaccines. How much courage it took to get the sequence out, how much work had already gone into figuring out the best viral antigen and how best to present it. 1/

Middle school kids having extraordinary #math skills visited our research institute @i2sysbio.bsky.social to learn about how we use mathematics to understand #DNA 🧬🖥🧪

Ahora mismo está en marcha la 3ª manifestación pidiendo la dimisión de Carlos Mazón.

En las 2 anteriores acudieron 230.000 personas en total.

Pues el tío, con sus santos cojonazos, que no dimite, oye.
