After joining a clinical trial for a new tile-based form of brachytherapy at UT MD Anderson, Stacy Dixon is now cancer-free following stage 4 melanoma with brain metastases.
Research presented at #ASCO26 highlights how this approach may help improve treatment for patients with brain metastases. spr.ly/6012B8dH0i #EndCancer @DrJeffWeinberg

Inspirational talk today by Dr. Monje at our MD Anderson BTP CNP seminar fall series focused on pediatric neurooncology! We need more “out of the box” thinkers like Dr. Monje to help find a cure for malignant brain tumors which remain a fatal disease despite agressive treatments!
“Cancer neuroscience is emerging as a field.”
Dr. @michelle_monje presented on the #neuroscience of #braincancer to
more than 80 researchers at @MDAndersonNews today.
Learn more about how the Cancer Neuroscience Program is working to #endcancer. ⬇️

Some cancer patients at MD Anderson rely on blood and platelet donations as part of their treatment.
If you are able, consider making an appointment to donate blood at the MD Anderson Blood Bank. #WorldBloodDonorDay #EndCancer

Federal pancreatic cancer research funding was eliminated in the FY25 budget — but we’re not backing down. Right now, there's a letter circulating in the House calling for $25 million to restore and strengthen the dedicated pancreatic cancer research program YOU helped create.
📣 Tell your representative to sign their name in support of research funding in the FY26 budget
📝 Take action now: p2a.co/vgOaKTI

FY25 funding has been eliminated from the only federal program exclusively researching pancreatic cancer!
Right now, members of the U.S. House of Representatives are circulating a bipartisan letter that urges key decision-makers to reinstate Pancreatic Cancer Research Program (PCARP) funding in the FY26 budget. The more representatives who sign, the stronger our message: Pancreatic cancer research urgently needs federal research investment. 📢📝
Contact your representative today and urge them to sign this critical letter in support of $25 million for PCARP! Read everything you need to know about the letter and take action today at pcan.at/advocacy. 💜
