Standing at the edge of a desert, surveying the stars on a December morning, the speaker in this poem observes the everything of everything. He is so small; the universe is so loud and so silent. Thinking about the enormity of all this, he thinks of the smallness of the hearts of birds, wasps, moths, bats, and dragonflies — all flying things around him, suspended in space, like the earth is suspended in space. His own heart, too, echoes the universe's noise.Alberto Ríos is Arizona's inaugural poet laureate and a recent chancellor of the Academy of American Poets, as well as the author of twelve collections of poetry, most recently, Not Go Away Is My Name. Published in the New Yorker, Paris Review, Ploughshares, and other journals, he has also written three short story collections and a memoir, Capirotada, about growing up on the Mexican border.  Ríos is also the host of the PBS programs Art in the 48 and Books & Co.

This woman is amazing and I so enjoyed chatting with @jewellparkerrhodes about her passion and purpose. We spoke about how she writes about diversity for a middle school audience, the childhood trauma that led to writing, and her brilliant idea to start a family book club! Dr. Rhodes is also the author of The American Book Award-winning Douglass' Women, two writing guides and the memoir Porch Stories: A Grandmother's Guide to Happiness. Her adult literary awards include the American Book Award, the National Endowment of the Arts Award in Fiction, the Black Caucus of the American Library Award for Literary Excellence, and the PEN Oakland/Josephine Miles Award for Outstanding Writing.

In early 2016, ISC began a multi-stakeholder process to develop a report on community resilience in the Maricopa County region of Arizona.  The report, supported by and developed in conjunction with The Virginia G. Piper Charitable Trust, was the foundational document that prompted the two organizations to create the Advancing Community Resilience Partnership, which aims to inspire, align and accelerate a shared vision for the people of Maricopa County to further build a strong community shaped and shared by all. In this episode we speak to two key staff to the partnership, Emily Mead and Karina French about what they've learned during implementation.

ecancer Managing Editor Prof Gordon McVie chairs a roundtable discussion at ESMO 2012 with Prof Fabrice Andre (Institut Gustave Roussy, Paris, France), Dr Ramesh Ramanathan (Virginia G. Piper Cancer Center, Scottsdale, USA), Prof Peter Harper (Kings College, London, UK) and Prof Robert Leonard (Imperial College, London, UK) on personalised medicine for cancer. They look at topics such as the need to identity differences between stratified medicines versus personalised medicine and defining personalised medicine as individualising treatment for patients. There are many factors that are already considered in treatment; however, there is a need to look further into the molecular alteration and genomics of a patient for more in-depth and effective personalised treatment. The prediction of cytotoxic effects and retrospective analysis of genomic treatments, will allow for the selection of patients based on evidence from clinical trials, saving cost in the treatment and avoiding toxicity to the patient.
