Good news for science in the UK. The picture shows two scientists in the Light Microscopy Core at the #CRUK Cambridge Institute 😀

A little late, but we were honored to attend the Cancer Research UK #CRUK #CancerGrandChallenges last week. We had a blast updating the group on the progress of Team OPTIMISTICC (OPportunity To Investigate the Microbiome’s Impact on Science and Treatment In Colorectal Cancer). We saw some really exciting science from the other grand challenge teams and look forward to seeing the new teams as we fight to cure and prevent cancer.

Had a lovely pootle around London town this morning. It was the #CRUK 10k #winterrun Helped by my marathon training, I got round in a quicker time than I thought I would do.

CRUK has a new #RegisteredReports pilot. If you apply to any of these awards:

Biology to Prevention
Biomarker Project
Cancer Immunology Project
Early Detection and Diagnosis Primer
Early Detection and Diagnosis Project
Multi-disciplinary Project
Prevention and Population Research Project

... then you can submit a Registered Report to one of 12 participating Springer Nature, Wiley, and PLOS journals.

2/2 Thanks to all involved & should mention the work of three exceptional #PhD students - Chelsea Taylor, Orion Tong & Rob Watson. Thanks to Sasha Gusev & Vivek Naranbhai for getting in touch with us to explore this association & being so good to work with. Thanks to funders #Wellcome #CRUK and #NIHR-BRC. Finally, this would not have been possible without the exceptional generosity of all the patients involved. #Oxford #Cancer

Here's a piece I wrote for #CRUK about how to improve #scientific #method #writing and why we need better examples for people to learn from:

"Research with Integrity – the madness of short methods"

https://news.cancerresearchuk.org/2022/12/07/research-with-integrity-the-madness-of-short-methods/

It's part of a blog series on #ResearchIntegrity I'm co-writing with Dr Catherine Winchester at the CRUK Beatson Institute

I enjoyed this #Nature #worldview article on #PeerReview from Olavo Amaral (https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4299-8978)

"To Fix Peer Review, Break It Into Stages"

https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-022-03791-5

This chimes with my own work at the #CRUK #Manchester Institute where I do a pre-submission review on all manuscripts.

Some elements in #cancer manuscripts could be automated, but we'd need much more standardisation for this to be broadly applicable.
