Hoy os saludamos desde la Biblioteca Jaume Fuster de Barcelona, a donde nos hemos trasladado para visitar la exposición Ana María Matute. Quien no inventa no vive cuando se cumple casi un siglo del nacimiento de la escritora catalana. De "la Matute" -como ella misma se llamaba- se pueden contar muchas cosas: que escribió su primer cuento con solo cinco años, que terminó su primera novela antes de cumplir la mayoría de edad, que acarició el Premio Nadal con veintitrés, que antes de los treinta ya podía presumir de tenerlo, también un premio Planeta y el primero de varios premios nacionales al que con el tiempo se sumaría el Cervantes. Pero no dejemos que el brillo de su palmarés eclipse la riqueza y complejidad de esta autora, de fondo pesimista, pero también dueña de un finísimo sentido del humor, capaz de retratar la vida en toda su crudeza a la vez que militaba en la ternura. En este programa especial repasamos su vida y su obra en conversación con quienes mejor la conocieron: su hijo Juan Pablo Goicoechea y su amiga Mari Paz Ortuño, profesora de la UAB y comisaria de esta exposición organizada por el Instituto Cervantes. Además, rescatamos del archivo de RTVE numerosos testimonios de la escritora y escuchamos los de Julia Viejo, Manuel Vilas, Andrea Toribio y Jorge de Cascante, autores actuales que admiran o se reconocen en la obra de "la Matute".Escuchar audio

En el séptimo aniversario de la llegada de Sánchez a la Moncloa, Las mañanas de RNE con Josep Cuní analiza con el politólogo Oriol Bartomeus el recorrido y los retos a los que se enfrenta el ejecutivo. El director del Instituto ICPS de la UAB ha afirmado que "sorprende que Sánchez aún siga siendo presidente", teniendo en cuenta que algunas de las cosas que han pasado podrían haber "tumbado a un Gobierno" y ha establecido tres etapas en su mandato: el primer Gobierno en solitario, caracterizada por un "PP noqueado por el escándalo Gürtel", una segunda, la del primer Gobierno de coalición, "donde el PP huele sangre" y una tercera, la actual, que sería "una etapa de construcción en un contexto similar al Gobierno terminal de Felipe González en el 95-96", por ciertos paralelismos debido a los procesos judiciales que salpican al PSOE y a la estrategia de la oposición, de la mano de Miguel Ángel Rodríguez, el cual sigue "al frente de la sala de máquinas", según Bartomeus, e influido también por la presencia de Vox. El politólogo no se ha atrevido a "hacer pronósticos a medio y largo plazo" porque ha afirmado que "desde el punto de vista de la ciencia política, Pedro Sánchez es un destroza supuestos".Escuchar audio

Cancer is among the most common and feared diseases in the modern world. Dr. Selwyn Vickers—president and CEO of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center—joins host Mark Labberton to discuss how precision oncology, data, and faith are transforming cancer treatment. A distinguished cancer surgeon and pancreatic cancer researcher, Vickers explains how groundbreaking advances in genomics, immunotherapy, and AI are transforming once-lethal diagnoses into survivable and even chronic conditions. Together, they explore not only the cutting-edge science of cancer care but also the spiritual, emotional, and social dimensions that affect every patient and caregiver. Resonating with themes of suffering, hope, and resurrection, this conversation offers clarity, compassion, and courage for all who are affected by cancer—from those newly diagnosed, to medical professionals, to grieving families and curious listeners. Episode Highlights “We're getting to a point where we will, in the next five to seven years, have a much better chance to cure people—and to make pancreatic cancer a chronic illness.” “We are in what's somewhat coined the golden age of cancer research.” “Cancer is a disease that creates an existential threat in ways no other illness does.” “If a tumour forms, it means your body's immune system has made a social contract with the cancer.” “We changed the diagnosis in 10–12 percent of the patients who come to us—sometimes from cancer to no cancer.” “Cancer care is a team sport. And our patients often inspire us more than we help them.” Helpful Links & Resources Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center BioNTech – creators of mRNA vaccines for COVID and cancer CAR T-Cell Therapy Overview (Cancer.gov) Tim Keller on cancer and hope Emma Thompson's Wit (HBO) BRCA1 and BRCA2 Genes and Cancer Risk MSK-IMPACT: Next-Gen Tumor Profiling About Selwyn Vickers Selwyn M.

Show Notes The ongoing threat and fear of cancer How Selwyn Vickers got into medicine Pancreatic cancer: Vickers's expertise “We are in what's somewhat coined the golden age of cancer research.” Sequencing the human genome “Is there a drug that might target the mutation that ended up creating your cancer?” Cancer as both a medical and existential diagnosis The revolution of precision oncology through human genome sequencing ”It takes a billion cells to have a one centimetre tumor.” Immunotherapy: checkpoint inhibition, CAR T-cell therapy, and vaccines Cellular therapy:   ”Taking a set of their normal cells and re-engineering them to actually go back and target and attack their tumors. … We've seen patients who had initially a 30 percent chance of survival converted to an 80 percent chance of survival.” “We know in many tumours there's something called minimal residual disease.” “Immunizing yourself against cancer is a significant future opportunity.” Managing the power of data with AI and computational oncology Cancer-care data explosion: the role of computational oncologists Cancer vaccines: breakthrough mRNA treatment for pancreatic cancer ”Didn't ultimately win. We had to suffer through her losing her life, but was so appreciative that she got much more than the six months she was promised.” Tumour misdiagnoses and the importance of specialized expertise Pancreatic cancer challenges: immune cloaking and late-stage detection In the past, one in four would die from the operation for removing pancreatic cancer Long-term survival Future of cancer detection: AI-based medical record analysis and blood biopsies More accurate blood tests to confirm conditions Using AI to select those who are high-risk for cancer Pastor Tim Keller died of pancreatic cancer. In the past, “your doctor … helped you learn how to die.” ”[God's] given man the privilege to discover those things that have been hidden. And over time we've gradually uncovered huge opportunities to impact people's lives.” The state of breast cancer research and treatment “If you get the diagnosis of breast cancer, you have a 90 percent chance to survive and beat it over a five-year period of time.” ”In general, we're in a great state of understanding how to treat breast cancer, how to detect it early, and then have selective and targeted mechanisms to prevent it from coming back.” Prostate cancer research and treatment Theranostics: using a specific antibody to target cancer cells specifically Pediatric cancer:  ”We actually treat more children for cancer than any hospital in America now, but in general, the survival for pediatric cancers is greater than 80 percent.” Emotional, psychological, and spiritual toll of cancer: importance of psycho-oncology How Sloan Kettering developed psycho-oncology to help cancer patients with mental and spiritual health Personal story: how a cafeteria worker empowers patients through food choices “We give back to them the right to choose what they get to have on their tray.” Cancer treatment is a team sport. Wit (film, Broadway play)—actress Emma Thompson plays a cancer patient studying the work of John Donne on death Socioeconomic and racial disparities in cancer care outcomes The healing role of community, support teams, and compassionate listening The importance of listening to cancer patients who are preparing to die The spiritual courage of patients and the transformative power of faith “Our patients often help us.
