Elizabeth McKenna: The May issue of Cancer Discovery
Elizabeth McKenna shared on LinkedIn:
“The May issue of Cancer Discovery is now online!
The cover features work by Doug Rubinson, Noritaka Tanaka, Andrew Aguirre, Ryan Corcoran, and colleagues showing that sotorasib is a pan-RAS G12C inhibitor capable of driving clinical response in NRAS G12C cancers.
Also in this issue: a commentary on spatial biology by Cameron Walker and Michael Angelo and a review on AI in oncology by Bill Lotter, Michael Hassett, Nikolaus Schultz, Ken Kehl, Eliezer Van Allen and Ethan Cerami that were inspired by AACR24 plenary sessions, and much more.
