In honor of Cervical Health Awareness Month, the National Cervical Cancer Coalition presents the Cervical Cancer Survivor Series. Across eight episodes, we share stories from cervical cancer survivors across the country, touching on topics including diagnosis, treatment, and survivorship, as well as advice for others whose lives are impacted by this preventable disease. We also talked to providers in the field to answer questions about screening prevention and treatment.

In this episode we speak to Barbara Moscicki, a pediatrician and HPV expert. Dr. Moscicki explains cervical cancer screening in detail and helps us understand the follow-ups we may need if we have an abnormal result. She also talks about the importance of the HPV vaccine and the possibility that we could eliminate cervical cancer.

Episode 309: Unlocking the Science of Pancreatic Cancer with Dr. Cosimo Commisso

We had several members of our family we lost to cancer, needless to say cancer was on my mind when I wrote this song, and in writing this new release it is a tribute to everyone we've lost to all forms of cancer in men and women and children we lost through the years and to their families and to those battling cancer today. God be with them all.
Thank you for listening to my new release and for sharing my new release, with those you know will be touched by this song.
We are all more than a memory to this life and in everything we do in this life, don't take this life for granted and never take the music business for granted.

Rising Cancer Rates in Younger Adults with Mohit Manrao from AstraZeneca

In this episode, we examine how machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) are becoming essential tools for improving image analysis of 3D samples. These technologies are reshaping research workflows by making analysis faster and more insightful.

We speak with Professor Jens Christian Schwamborn, Professor of Cellular and Developmental Biology at the University of Luxembourg, and Professor Christophe Deben, Professor of Tumour Biology and Organoids at the University of Antwerp. They share their perspectives on the current challenges in 3D sample analysis and how AI is helping to solve them - reducing processing time and revealing previously inaccessible information.

We'll look at the key reasons behind AI’s growing use in 3D image analysis, identify the limitations of existing imaging technologies, and explore how AI is evolving to handle increasingly complex data. We'll also discuss how the availability of large datasets is accelerating this shift and what breakthroughs AI could enable in the near future.

Machine Learning and AI in Enhancing Image Analysis of 3D Samples

This episode, 'Translating Promising Drug Candidates from Preclinical Screening to Clinical Trials,' will explore the challenges and successes of moving promising drug candidates from preclinical screening to clinical trials in oncology.

Join Dr. Steve Shnyder, Associate Professor at the Institute of Cancer Therapeutics, University of Bradford, as he explores:

- The unique challenges in oncology drug development.
- Preclinical model limitations and needed innovations.
- Translating preclinical insights into effective clinical trial design.
- The role of AI and machine learning in overcoming development hurdles.
- Real-world case studies of successful oncology drug approvals.

How is artificial intelligence being used in cancer care, and what do patients think about it?

In this 'Ask Me Anything' episode, Ellie Wolmark, Programme Manager for Integrated Cancer Medicine (ICM) at the CRUK Cambridge Centre, speaks with patient representatives Lorraine, Frankie, and Ann from across our Patient and Public Involvement groups, alongside ICM researchers Professor James Brenton, Dr Ines Machado, and Dr Gabriel Funingana from the University of Cambridge.

Together, they explore how artificial intelligence (AI) is being applied in cancer research, how it could support personalised treatment, and what the future might hold. The patients share thoughtful questions and concerns about the role of AI in healthcare, while the researchers explain how it's currently being used and what challenges remain.

This lively and insightful discussion highlights just how valuable patient involvement is in shaping research that truly meets the needs of those it aims to help.

Why does eating more not fix the severe weight loss seen in some cancer patients, and what can be done about it?

In this 'Ask Me Anything' episode, Dr Hui-Ling Ou, Programme Manager for the Pancreatic Cancer and Cancer Immunology Programmes at the CRUK Cambridge Centre, speaks with researchers from the Cancer Cachexia Action Network (CANCAN): Dr Claire Connell (University of Cambridge and Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust), Dr David Lewis (CRUK Scotland Institute), and Dr Tobias Janowitz (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory).

Together, they unpack what cancer-associated cachexia is, why it's so devastating for patients, and how scientists are working to understand and reverse this syndrome. The guests share how their research, spanning metabolism, imaging, immunology, and clinical studies, is bringing fresh insights and hope to a problem that affects quality of life for so many.

This thought-provoking discussion shines a light on the collaborative efforts driving progress against one of cancer's most challenging complications.

What do you most want to know about pancreatic cancer and cancer-associated cachexia?

In this special episode, we bring you a recording of a live 'Ask Me Anything (AMA)' event hosted by the CRUK Cambridge Centre Pancreatic Cancer Programme for World Pancreatic Cancer Day 2024.

A multidisciplinary and international panel of experts, including clinicians, researchers, nurses, dietitians and physiotherapists, answer thoughtful questions from the public about pancreatic cancer, cachexia and the latest research and care approaches. Topics range from understanding the biology of these diseases to managing symptoms and improving quality of life.

The discussion sheds light on the progress being made and the ongoing challenges in improving outcomes for people affected by these conditions.
