This week, Loic Verlingue (CLB) & Santi Demajo (@irbbarcelona.org) represented CGI-Clinics at the EUnetCCC seminar 'Advancing Precision Oncology through Molecular Tumour Boards' - a fantastic opportunity to bring the CGI tool to the forefront of the European precision cancer diagnostics community 🌍
Delighted and honored to have hosted the 3rd PROMINENT Retreat in Barcelona.
The @cancergrand.bsky.social project led by Allan Balmain, Paul Brennan and Nuria Lopez-Bigas, is progressing thanks to the excellent science being performed by all the teams. Great meeting and best participants!
Happening tomorrow!
Join our upcoming webinar, organised by the @helloeacr.bsky.social, on 09 April (14:00–15:30 CET) to explore the new CGI platform, virtual Molecular Tumour Boards, and a real clinical use case from Lyon.

Excited to see this thought provoking piece of work now published. So much more to learn about mutagenesis in healthy tissue.
Tumor promotion through the lens of evolution
This review grew out of many long conversations, shared ideas, and lively discussions
It has been a real pleasure to think together with Allan, Paul, Eve, and Abel about how tumours develop and how carcinogens shape cancer risk

Huge congratulations to Fran on being awarded the ERC Consolidator Grant! 🎉
Such a well-deserved recognition of an outstanding trajectory and a truly creative, exciting proposal on T-cell clonal hematopoiesis.
Can’t wait to see the discoveries that come out of this project.
So proud of you! 👏✨

🚨 New paper alert!
Sex and smoking bias in the selection of somatic mutations in human bladder
www.nature.com/articles/s41...
by @raquelbmi.bsky.social, @ferriol.bsky.social et al (in collaboration with Rosana Risques lab in @uwmedicine.bsky.social)
Sex bias and association with smoking history identified in the landscape of driver mutations and clonal expansions in normal human bladder tissue may explain the higher bladder cancer risk in men and smokers.
