Elizabeth Roboz Einstein's journey began on May 15, 1940, when she boarded the Conte di Savoia, an Italian steamliner, leaving behind her family in Hungary as World War II escalated. This voyage was not a luxury cruise but a desperate evacuation for many, including 600 Central European refugees fleeing the advancing German troops.

For over a month, my office has been going back and forth with ICE officials about Andrea's condition. We have been ignored, put off, and frankly, lied to about the treatment she has received while in detention.

Incyte tops this list due to its rare combination of commercial scale, cash generation, and pipeline depth. The company posted FY2025 revenue of $5.14 billion, up 21.2% YoY, anchored by Jakafi generating $828.2 million in Q4 2025 alone (+7% YoY) and Opzelura delivering $207.3 million (+28% YoY). With $3.58 billion in cash and 14 pivotal clinical trials underway, Incyte offers an acquirer immediate revenue, margin expansion potential, and a deep oncology pipeline spanning KRASG12D, CDK2 inhibition, and mutCALR.

Resident Mike Morris expressed that the project will burden the community, citing existing congestion on local roads. He stated, 'This is the wrong neighborhood for such a massive project.'

The funds raised through Visionaries of the Year are used for research to advance lifesaving therapies like immunotherapy, genomics and personalized medicine, which are saving lives today.

Keytruda, first approved in 2014, belongs to a class of immunotherapy drugs that enable the immune system to attack cancer cells, extending survival for millions and transforming fatal diagnoses into manageable conditions.

New findings on cancer survival rates offer hope for the more than 2 million Americans diagnosed each year. Seven out of 10 Americans diagnosed with cancer now survive five years or more, according to the American Cancer Society, a 7 percent increase since the mid-1990s, when the rate stood at 63 percent. The survival rate data - from patients diagnosed with cancer between 2015 and 2021 - showed, significantly, that those with high-mortality cancers and advanced diagnoses had the largest gains.

For years, scientists have viewed cancer as a localized glitch in which cells refuse to stop dividing. But a new study suggests that, in certain organs, tumors actively communicate with the brain to trick it into protecting them. Scientists have long known that nerves grow into some tumors and that tumors containing lots of nerves usually lead to a worse prognosis.

Nearly 40% of new cancer cases worldwide are potentially preventable, according to a new analysis. The study found that in 2022, smoking tobacco was the leading contributor to cancer cases, followed by infections and drinking alcohol. Reducing such risk factors is "one of the most powerful ways that we can potentially reduce the future cancer burden", says cancer epidemiologist and study co-author Hanna Fink.

The cancer was fastacting, and if I'd left it even six months, the outcome could have been much worse,

A report last year found unnecessary surgeries were carried out, cancers were missed and poor standards of care were delivered at the University Hospital of North Durham and Darlington Memorial Hospital. CDDTF said it wanted to support the patients it had let down, including by offering access to psychological support, and to ensure they knew how to make a claim or raise concerns with police.
