Why have we not found a cure for cancer?
๐ฅทย Cancer is an adaptable disease
๊ฎ Cancer is not one disease.
โ๏ธCancer data is siloed.
โ If you are curing cancer, switch to Jori.
๐งย We are rainmakers ๐ง
By far the best summary of AI's impact on "published" research in 2024.
Reading & writing is 60% of all research. When the verbiage is left to the machines, the thing that matters the most is quality of work & impact.
If you are curing cancer, come do the best work of your life with us.

Submitting grants last minute? Good.
(blue = submits) & (red = got $).
๐ Almost all the $ grants were submitted in the last 4 days
๐ Someone actually submitted a MONTH before ๐
โ๏ธ Grants are submitted by the host Institution, not so much the PI. Take this with a grain of salt.
Tailwind knows oncology funding $$ like nobody else - plus abstracts, research trends, actual publications, clinical trials data, and research outcomes.
๐ More than 14B in cancer funding trends from NIH
๐ 8M+ research articles

Cancer truly is the final frontier
You are a conglomerate of 1.3 Trillion cells.
Yes, you.
A trillion cells read this tweet.
Think about that for a second.
Been brewing a storm in our labs last year. In 2025, this becomes a tornado.
๐งฌ๐ฌ supercharge research in oncology
โฃ๏ธ๐ฉ๐ปโโ๏ธ improve patient care & wellbeing
๐ท๐ dramatically improve patient outcomes
Cancer is about to meet its final frontier.
Happy New Year!
Yeah not good.
The peer-review process has slowly curated a level of perversion in the publication industry that is hard to ignore.
If you have reviewed over a 100 submissions + got the most bizarre reviewer#2โs it slowly sinks in.
This actually got published โ>
Congrats to all the awesome presenters at #ASH24
How to write a good grant?
1. Write it for the reviewer, not you, the applicant.
2. Communicate in stories.
3. Make your story cohesiveโleave no puzzling gaps.
4. Make your story resonate to keep the reviewer reading.
5. Accept chance and noise in peer-review.
Exercise is medicine.
Your gym membership is the best health insurance you will pay for. Donโt like gyms? Put on those running shoes - roads are open 24x7.
Start now. Start where you are. Start on a Sunday at 5 pm.
Walk. Run. Pump.
Yes! So true. Iโd suspect the numbers are actually up (not down)
Awesome ๐
Its in the genes, they said ๐
Forbes 30 under 30 has been doing this for years
โ It does not matter how good your work is. If you canโt put information where the reader expects to find it, your work will never see the light of the day.
Handy guide attached for getting this right.

๐ป Soon, your results are in intro, literature survey in results, plots appear first followed next by nuances in the experimental methodology used.
๐ All of this puts the burden on the reviewer to extract details from parts of your paper.The result? Reviewers get tired and click reject.
"How did that stupid reviewer miss it? Those details are clearly there on page-4. Do they not read?"
๐ When you are new to writing papers, there is a strong compulsion to write down every important thought as they appear in whatever section you are currently writing at that time.
Running into your old statistics professor on Bluesky and be like what are the chances
That moment has arrived. My go to place to share & discover scientific ideas is now Bluesky (where X used to be).
Itโs so refreshing to have a concentrated community of science folks.
I love you all.
Yes! Iโm absolutely loving it here too.
Darcy please add me to the list! I miss all my onco friends from X hope we find one another
Wow what a list and congrats on making it on there Amy!
๐ Want to find a few great problems worth solving right away? If you are curing cancer, try Tailwind --> (www.jori.health/tailwind)
๐ค ๐ฆSo, how do you pick hard, important problems? Paul Graham has an essay on how to go about it, which we feel applies universally for picking research problems - including bold new ways to cure cancer โฌ
๐ช๐ผ Instead, choose to do HARD things. Your impact will be magnitudes higher. By simply aiming higher youโll also land higher - transcending those publish-or-perish games. The competition is way less, too.
๐ง It is also a fertile ground for mediocrity, short-cuts, and incremental advances. When this is sustained for a decade, it stagnates careers and breeds a massive loss of internal purpose.
Do HARD things. Youโll be amazed at how far youโll go.
๐ In scientific circles, one is constantly reminded that the system works as a zero sum publish-or-perish game. Obsessing over volume shifts focus away from quality & impact.
Onco community is less fun (and less knowledgeable) without you folks :) welcome
