AbstractLung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer mortality, despite declining smoking rates. Previous lung cancer GWAS have identified numerous loci, but separating the genetic risks of lung cancer and smoking behavioral susceptibility remains challenging.

For some time, I have been dreaming up a scenario that I thought was the stuff of pipedreams. Listen, the Democratic Party is struggling. Sure, they're winning elections, but why? Are they creating enthusiasm for their policies with existing voters? Could they be offering bold ideas to younger voters? Are they fighting tooth and nail for the disenfranchised? Are they rigging and stealing elections with brazen corruption hidden on private email severs?

This one goes out to all my people hoping this PGA nonsense doesn't just get ignored and accepted. (This story requires you have a background on the LIV and PGA tour feud for the past year.

With everything bad going on in the world, when it all seems monochrome delirious, sometimes all we need is a little happy. And the Michael Block story provides us just that - 2 parts fairy tale, 1 part authenticity, and 1 part...

First, a check up to come out of the gate: a criticism of an economic system or some result from it does not in itself mean I'm calling into question the whole system. Criticism can make things better as easily as it can call for alternatives. If you wanted a system to die, perhaps the best thing you could do is to deny and dismiss any criticism; ignore or deny the leak on a ship long enough, and there's no...

All I really want in life is to help others understand themselves & the world around them. The "Explain Like I'm Five" series aims to bring down current issues into a consumable summary, with limited (but well informed) bias. As the days of May count down, the United States approaches the so called debt ceiling, after which point we...
