NYC Labor Rally Honors 9/11 Workers, Draws 5,000

More than 5,000 union members representing over 50 unions gathered in Lower Manhattan for the New York City Central Labor Council’s 2026 Labor Day Rally and March, combining a celebration of organized labor with remembrance of the workers who responded to the September 11 attacks. The event highlighted the role union members played in the city’s rescue, recovery and rebuilding efforts while connecting that legacy to current concerns facing New York workers. Participants marched past the World Trade Center site on their way to Foley Square, with labor leaders, rank-and-file members and elected officials taking part. Governor Kathy Hochul, Mayor Zohran Mamdani, Attorney General Letitia James and other city and state leaders were among those attending the gathering.

NY State Workers Rally Against Workplace Bullying

The Public Employees Federation brought its newest labor protest symbol, S.T.O.M.P. the bull, to Lower Manhattan as union members rallied over alleged workplace problems at the New York State Department of Financial Services. PEF says employees have faced bullying, intimidation and retaliation and is calling for greater accountability and protections for state workers. The demonstration drew roughly 100 union leaders, members and staff, along with representatives from other labor organizations and several elected officials. The union also raised broader concerns about how discrimination complaints involving state agencies are investigated. S.T.O.M.P., whose name stands for “Stop Treating Our Members Poorly,” is expected to appear at future PEF actions across New York State.

Mount Sinai Finds New Pancreatic Cancer Target

Mount Sinai researchers have identified a biological mechanism that may help explain why pancreatic cancer has been particularly resistant to immunotherapy. The research focuses on how a relatively small share of tumor cells can alter their immediate surroundings, creating protected areas that make it harder for the immune system to attack the cancer. Scientists also identified specific proteins and interactions involved in establishing these defenses, providing possible targets for future therapies. In preclinical testing, interfering with the mechanism weakened the tumors’ immune protection and improved the performance of immunotherapy. While the findings are not yet ready to change patient treatment, they offer researchers a promising direction for developing combination therapies against one of the most difficult cancers to treat.

NYU AI Improves 5-Year Breast Cancer Risk Prediction

Researchers at NYU Langone Health and Perlmutter Cancer Center have developed an artificial intelligence system designed to improve how doctors estimate a woman’s likelihood of developing breast cancer within five years. The technology evaluates changes visible across multiple years of 3D mammograms rather than relying on a single screening or primarily on traditional risk factors. In a large study involving more than 161,000 women, the approach outperformed models based on one 3D mammogram, AI-assisted 2D imaging and a commonly used clinical risk assessment. Researchers say the findings could eventually help physicians personalize breast cancer screening by identifying women who may benefit from additional monitoring while reducing unnecessary supplemental testing for patients whose imaging indicates lower risk.
