Nature hates capitalism? Higher cancer rates amongst less cooperative species.

Mammals that live in cooperative social groups tend to have lower cancer rates than solitary, competitive species, suggesting social behavior may influence cancer risk across species. doi.org/qdpb

Brutal: "Therefore, cancer can be considered as a selected mechanism of biological obsolescence in competitive species."
(A mathematical model.)
Syövästä saattaa olla evoluutiossa jopa hyötyä: tekee tilaa uusille sukupolville. Jos oppisimme elämään ikuisesti, evoluutio tyssäisi aikalailla siihen. Kulttuurievoluutio ei toki välttämättä. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
So, basically, kindness lowers cancer rates in a species and cruelty increases them.... wow....
My non-scientific hypothesis;
The more you care about others the better you are for the species and the longer you live.

Ok, this is fascinating!
Esta no la he visto venir 🤯🫂
#Cooperate
#Care
Fascinating! It suggests that social cooperation might offer protection against cancer, perhaps by reducing stress and promoting healthier environments. The link between behavior and biology is more powerful than we think.
This opens up possibilities for genetic biomimicry approaches that would copy anti-cancer adaptations from species in which cancer is evolutionarily disadvantageous. Such strategies would raise important ethical concerns.

So we are screwed. 😂 Capitalism has long been associated with cancer.
Why do whales and elephants have much lower rates of cancer than expected?

El Dr. Matías Blaustein dio una charla titulada: “Cáncer, diversidad y buen vivir: ¿competir o compartir?”
Felicitamos al grupo por apostar a la interdisciplinariedad!
Por su parte, el becario posdoctoral Francisco Gelman Constantin presentó el póster “Salud Colectiva y Políticas Públicas: ¿Quién decide y cómo lo hace?”. De este trabajo son co autoras las Dras. Mercedes García Carrillo y Natalia Rubinstein (del grupo Mecanismos Moleculares de la Metástasis)
Del 10 a 12 de junio tuvo lugar el “VIII Congreso Internacional de Salud Socioambiental” en Rosario, Santa Fe. 👇
Contó con la presencia del iB3, por parte del Laboratorio de Biología de Sistemas y Filosofía del Cáncer, dirigido por el Dr. Matías Blaustein.
Nuestro trabajo sobre efectos carcinogénicos del herbicida paraquat en células, animales y humanos ya se encuentra publicado en Environmental Science and Pollution Research.

Convocamos y adherimos a la marcha de hoy, es todxs juntxs! 💪
Después me puse a leer El niño resentido de César González para bajar un poco...
