Nearly a decade in the making, @ace_arizona is finally ready to share the most complete portrait we have of cancer risk across species! And with it, an evolutionary framework to understand the diversity of disease risk biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Abstract submission for posters will open in less than two weeks. Topics include: Zombie Behavior, Sex in the Apocalypse, Techistential Risk, LGBTQ, Your Z-Team AI, Medicine in the ZA, Economic Fallout, Pandemic, Making the Apocalypse Fun Again, The Ins and Outs of Surviving.
No, we aren't going to cancel ZAMM2020 because of #COVID19 . It takes more than a pandemic to stop the Zombie Apocalypse Medicine Meeting.

Passengers might be able to help the driving in tumor evolution. Our latest paper: rsif.royalsocietypublishing.… also interesting parallels to the field of turbulence.

.@cmaley asks why should we care about measuring evolution in a neoplasm? Helps for predictions. Helps for risk stratification. What tumors you need to care about. Might be able to predict response to therapy.
