Among people w/ advanced #melanoma , the cancer was more likely to spread to the brain in males than females. If the cancer spread to the brain, males had worse survival than females, but if not, there were no sex differences in survival.

🗞 Check out this important work led by Mark Purdue!

This research increased the diversity of participants' genetic ancestry compared to previous studies that focused on people of European ancestry, extending our knowledge of how genetics affect kidney cancer risk.

For National #CancerPreventionAndEarlyDetection Month, we want to highlight our biostatistics branch’s work on publicly available cancer risk assessment tools that aim to increase early detection efforts in communities nationwide. #BidenCancerMoonshot  dceg.cancer.gov/research/publi…

You could join us in the Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics or the NCI Center for Cancer Research!
