The Pink Ribbon Butterfly Project, LTD Powered by a mother's legacy and fueled by a daughter's commitment. A cure or finding research to prevent it is too late for them.

Powered by a mother's legacy and fueled by a daughter's commitment, The Pink Ribbon Butterfly Project’s mission focuses on: Change, Joy, Resurrection, Transition, Empowerment and Celebration. Through what we do, (hands-on) at the grassroots level, we meet women (and men) who are dealing with cancer NOW. So, what we want to do is meet the needs they have right now, after being diagnosed with breast cancer. There are 11 million survivors today & celebrating birthdays but our work is not done. The Pink Ribbon Butterfly Project & is determined to turn pain into a purpose. So, we are on a wandering mission to plant laughter seeds along this thing called life ~ kind of like a modern-day Johnny Appleseed (or wandering metaphysical mischief (mirth) - maker!!!). We offer companies, churches, wellness organizations, hospitals, support groups, camps/retreats, retirement & nursing homes, festivals, celebrations & parties and/or anyone that will have us, the following:
💝Laughter Ice-Breakers
💝Laughter Keynotes
💝Belly Laugh Parties & Giggle Fests
💝Laughter Ambassador Training
💝Laughter for Life (tele-classes)
💝Laughter-Cize Class Series
💝Laughter Toolkits to Patients Going thru Treatment
💝The GiggleFest Network (free GROUP on Facebook)

How Pigeons Are Helping Catch Cancer Cases in Humans

That headline sounds a bit bizarre, we know, but it’s true. Among pigeons’ many talents is providing an extra set of eyes for doctors looking for signs of cancer in medical scans. In 2015, researchers enlisted the unlikely medical assistants to identify breast cancer in mammograms to help prevent imaging misses. Now, another team of scientists has recruited the birds yet again to train AI to help do the same.
​
In a study published earlier this year, researchers trained six pigeons to watch CT scan videos and spot lung nodules, a type of growth that could be a sign of cancer. After the birds learned to spot the lung nodules, they also started recognizing emphysema and ground-glass nodules — both problems they hadn’t even been trained on.
​
Here’s where AI comes in: The researchers are now trying to channel the pigeon’s keen visual system, which works similarly to the human’s unconscious visual system, to develop medical AI tools that can double, triple, and quadruple check scans. They noted that the pigeon-inspired method will by no means replace radiologists, but rather help ensure scans are understood as thoroughly as possible.

Thanks in advance, pigeons!
