Adaptive therapy manages the evolution of the cancer to extend survival time and reduce toxicity (improve quality of life). bit.ly/4cehaWe http://bit.ly/4cehaWe03 Feb 2026 18:48 +0000at://did:plc:tf5hv6es5r4vbimsx3fd2nzq/app.bsky.feed.post/3mdxzl7zex227https://bsky.app/profile/cmaley.bsky.social/post/3mbcgj4z4oc2fI was listening to the AI generated music of The Velvet Sundown as a thought provoking exercise. I think it is wrong to think of generative AI as being made by a machine, with no humans trying to communicate something. It is more like a melding pot chorus of humanity, and interesting as such.31 Dec 2025 17:50 +0000at://did:plc:tf5hv6es5r4vbimsx3fd2nzq/app.bsky.feed.post/3mbcgj4z4oc2fhttps://bsky.app/profile/cmaley.bsky.social/post/3m5enkulsas2yI'm looking forward to the big AACR Cancer Evolution conference in Albuquerque Dec. 4-6: https://www.aacr.org/meeting/aacr-special-conference-in-cancer-research-cancer-evolution/registration/11 Nov 2025 17:21 +0000at://did:plc:tf5hv6es5r4vbimsx3fd2nzq/app.bsky.feed.post/3m5enkulsas2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/cmaley.bsky.social/post/3m36pn74hwk2nWe are hiring a postdoc to profile the evolvability of tumors in longitudinal samples from three clinical trials as part of the ARPA-H ADAPT program. This is essentially an evolutionary bioinformatics position.

We also ended up talking about prosocial issues. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BS74KfYniSQ01 Sep 2025 19:23 +0000at://did:plc:tf5hv6es5r4vbimsx3fd2nzq/app.bsky.feed.post/3lxsdan54mk2uhttps://bsky.app/profile/cmaley.bsky.social/post/3lmkvt3c2n22tWe just published a fun article on applying evolution and ecology to world building (for authors and gamers).
