What an intellectual tussle between yincaoscd.bsky.social & Prof Anderson! On why cancer prevention must start early—risk, origins & targets in youth are key. Late-life action is too late. Facts clashed, emotions flared, with academic 'bribery' & 'blackmail' thrown in #PrevConf25

These monkeys keep me on my toes—energised yet drained; youthful yet weathered; content yet always worried. Can’t imagine life without them though. And yes, I’m forcing a tradition on them #father’s day will always be matching father & daughter socks day!
