Trials for the world’s first-ever lung cancer vaccine just launched across eight countries
Doctors have now started trials for the world’s first lung cancer vaccine in patients. Experts say it has “groundbreaking” potential to save thousands of lives from the world’s leading cause of cancer death, with about 1.8 million deaths every year.
The new vaccine uses similar mRNA technology as the COVID-19 vaccines — it instructs the body to find and kill cancer cells and prevents them from ever coming back.
About 130 patients in eight countries will participate in the trial, and the vaccine targets non-small cell lung cancer, the most common form of the disease.

High school students are using lunch drives and free doughnuts to encourage their eligible classmates to vote
With 8 million high school students eligible to vote in the 2024 general election in November, an organization is helping high schoolers host voter registration drives.
New Voters is a nonpartisan nonprofit that connects high school students who are passionate about civic engagement with the resources to help engage their classmates, too.
In 2017, the organization’s founder, Jahnavi Rao registered 85% of eligible voters at her high school. Since 2018, New Voters has registered over 80,000 high schoolers to vote across 400 high schools in 39 states.
And they’re not slowing down — they’ve already helped over 2,000 drive leaders and volunteers, who recruit others in subsequent years and election cycles.
