people (esp. politicians) treat cancer like its, idk, a flu or something. It's a disease that can be treated with medicine that goes in your body.

cancer is a side effect of being alive. if you live long enough, you will get cancer. "Curing" the condition would involve totally rewriting how we work as a species, and we're still stumbling around in the dark figuring out which molecules actually work because we can't even nail down fundamental principles in most cases like "this is how you treat thing."

Cancers that we can strangle to death by inhibiting hormones are in a very good place from a treatment perspective, everything else is still the wild west and something that resembles a "cure" is, in my mind, unlikely in our lifetimes.

wow we'll never cure it with that attitude, mister

We let it be known that Schnorkles, for a snack, eats tiny pieces of shit.

You're picturing it and you're talking about it. That's a win in my book.

it's because, fundamentally, medicine still isn't science. there's no theories of cell function that capture what cells actually do, let alone a statistical theory of mass cell function. it's why i call doctors body technicians, which they seem to enjoy. very humble group of people.

i can't really get into any specifics because of NDAs and such-not, but we do a lot of data science and analytics support in this field.

there's a whole bunch of angry CEOs telling us to make the numbers say <x> when they really don't say <x>

like i can't remember the exact stats and what-not, but some of the immuno-oncology like treatments are really good at treating certain forms of lymphoma and have a much higher success rate there.

The fun and exciting secret is we don't really have a good sense why they work better there than other places. There's alot of hypothesis, of course, but nothing that's really born out in clinical trials.

my experience is that the closer you get to doctor stuff, you realize that they can do amazing things now but more or less they're like the people who walked into a dark cave with a couple of flashlights and they've just been there for a couple hours longer than you have.

it's conceptually crazy to me how much we've managed to delve into the fundamental physical laws of the universe at extreme high energy states but the human body is still essentially an old timey map with "here be dragons" scrawled down everywhere
