We’re taking a major leap forward in the fight against osteosarcoma — a rare and aggressive bone cancer that most often strikes children and teens. Thanks to a $3.17 million federal award, supported by the, Dr. Alexander Davies and his team are launching an ambitious project aimed at understanding and stopping the disease where it becomes most deadly.

For more than 40 years, families have endured the same heartbreaking reality: when osteosarcoma spreads to the lungs, survival rates barely improve. Traditional tools haven’t allowed scientists to truly see what’s happening as metastasis takes hold. Davies’ lab is changing that.

With this new funding, researchers can now watch osteosarcoma cells in action — how they grow, spread, communicate, and respond to treatment. These advanced models give scientists an unprecedented window into how tumor cells establish themselves and, importantly, what makes them vulnerable. This work brings us closer to developing safer, more effective treatments that finally move the needle for kids and families who have waited far too long for progress.

Together, we’re pushing toward a future where kids facing osteosarcoma have more hope and more tomorrows.🎗️❤️
Hopping to ride the this Memorial Day Weekend? Change your plans because it’s closed for maintenance May 21-26.

Crews will be working to shorten the tram’s haul rope. You can see three ropes in the video, the two outer ropes are track ropes. The middle rope is the haul rope. The haul rope is used to propel the tram cabins from one station to the other. It stretches overtime and must be shortened every 18 months and replaced every six years.

During this time, shuttle service will be offered. services will temporarily move to Zidell Yards on Wednesday, May 20.

For safety reasons, the upper tram platform and tram elevator will also be closed during the work. The pedestrian bridge through the OHSU Kohler Pavilion garage will remain open for access into the main hospital buildings from OHSU Casey Eye Institute and lower Campus Drive.

We #GoGrayInMay for Maddie — a brave, bright, unstoppable 4‑year‑old. 🩶

According to her mom, Maddie loves to play doctor right alongside her care team, always flashing the biggest smile and saying, “I got this,” before heading in for her “special medicine" (chemo).

Maddie has low vision in her right eye and no vision in her left, yet the way she’s adapted has inspired everyone around her. Most people who meet her would never guess what she’s facing — her smile shines that brightly. 🌈

She loves Bluey, Doc McStuffins, and her favorite, Danny Go!, and she brings that same playful spirit into every room she enters.

Maddie, you are pure courage wrapped in sunshine chasing those gray days away. ☀️ ☁️ Go Gray for Maddie:
Miscarriage, the spontaneous, unexpected loss of a pregnancy before 20 weeks, is the most common complication in early pregnancy, and a new OHSU study found that state-level abortion bans were associated with a reduction in evidence-based medical care for miscarriage management.

“We can’t restrict one area of reproductive health care without there being far-reaching impacts,” said Dr. Maria Rodriguez, director of the OHSU Center for Women’s Health.

“Patients are having to wait longer to receive treatment, and when they arrive, they have fewer choices. These are very real and dangerous clinical implications for the hundreds of thousands of women experiencing miscarriages annually.”

Having the full spectrum of treatment options is critical to support patient comfort, safety, and autonomy. Some women experiencing a miscarriage prefer to have the process completed as soon as possible; for these individuals, medication or a surgical procedure may be the best option. Others want more time to grieve and process the loss; for them, expectant management may be preferred.

No matter the choice, Dr. Rodriguez emphasizes that every patient is unique and deserves to be treated with dignity.

“Going through a miscarriage is a uniquely terrible experience. What women want in those situations is choices, and respect for those choices.”

Looking forward, Dr. Rodriguez warns that efforts to make miscarriage management legally distinct from abortion and protect access to mifepristone will be crucial.

“If we don’t fight to preserve what’s left of our reproductive health infrastructure, we’ll continue to see these consequences over time. Women’s health across the country is at stake, and we can’t take our foot off the gas.”

Researchers found that the cancer-driving protein MYC also helps damaged tumor cells survive treatment by repairing their DNA.

It is a discovery that could lead to new strategies to make chemotherapy and other DNA-damaging therapies more effective.

Why is this important?

“Our work shows that MYC isn’t just helping cancer cells grow — it’s also helping them survive some of the very treatments designed to kill them,” said Dr. Rosalie Sears.

And if MYC helps cancer cells repair that damage, treatments can become less effective.

“Cancer therapies often depend on overwhelming tumor cells with DNA damage,” Dr. Sears said. “If a cancer cell is very good at fixing that damage, it can survive treatment and keep growing.”

Once thought to be impossible, the study supports ongoing efforts at OHSU to target MYC in people with cancer.

“MYC is one of the two most important oncogenes in all of human cancer,” Dr. Sears said. “If we can interfere with MYC’s role in DNA repair — without shutting down everything MYC does in healthy cells — we may be able to make cancer cells more vulnerable to treatment.”

When retired, four-time Olympic skier AJ Kitt finally told his children he had CML, he was amazed by their reaction.

"They were just like, ‘OK, can you pass the ketchup?' It was just no big deal," Kitt said. "And it’s been like that ever since. They’re as comfortable with it as I am.”

The nonchalant reaction is due in large part to the development of Gleevec, which took a fatal cancer and turned it into a highly manageable diagnosis.

For AJ, Gleevec simply meant he got to live. As he explained to his children, all those times he made the drive from their home in Hood River to Portland for medical appointments, it was to manage his CML.

“They just figured it was normal that Dad drove to Portland for doctor’s appointments,” he said.

By the time he told his children, his hemoglobin, platelets, and white blood cells had all returned to normal levels, and he had been in remission for years.

“Dr. Druker had just had a conversation with me where he said, ‘AJ, you’re going to die of something someday, but it’s not going to be leukemia,’” Kitt said. “It was such a relief to hear that.”

AJ remains filled with gratitude for his physician, a researcher and cancer institute executive who still insists on seeing patients every week.

“The fact that he discovered and developed Gleevec and all the stuff he went through to get there, and then he sits by your bed and holds your hand; he’s just remarkable,” Kitt said.

This week marks the 25th Anniversary of Gleevec's FDA approval, and Dr. Brian Druker reflected on the milestone.

"It’s been the honor of my life to fight for my patients and to see Gleevec give hundreds of thousands of people their lives back,” Druker said.
