I’m happy to have the chance to host the Cancer Research Blog Carnival (CRBC, if you’re cool) once again, this time the 12th(!) edition on August 1!

You’re encouraged to submit your posts on current cancer research and therapeutics here (or by emailing me or the bayblab folks—the CRBC godfathers, or including a link in the comment section of this post) before Thursday, July 31(ish).

Spread the word, yo. Please?

I recently authored a post at The Differential, Medscape’s group medical student weblog, entitled “Discrimination in Science and Medicine.” Do not go there and read it under any circumstances.

Word to the 9th(!!) edition. Submissions go here. You, eventually, go here.

More Differential action on Medscape’s group medical student weblog.

A few weeks ago, I was feeling a little labbed out, and things were getting a little monotonous. The cure? Make a list of the commonest signs and symptoms of labitis. (No, not labiitis.)

Shortly after that, another post went up comparing the daily lives of medical students and graduate students.

Finally, for your enjoyment and/or practical, clinical use, I presented some of the greatest medical acronyms known to man (in a field already known largely for its somewhat ridiculous acronyms and abbreviations).

Totally forgot to post about this earlier, but the eighth edition of the Cancer Research Blog Carnival, founded way back in 2007 by those crazy Canucks at the bayblab blog, is being hosted this month at The Skeptical Alchemist. Go there.

This is getting huge, and I love it.

Since I totally forgot to mention the seventh edition, it was hosted last month by Walter at Highlight HEALTH. Check that one out too.
