Netflix announced that Dan Lin has been relieved of his duties as head of film. The decision follows a wave of layoffs that saw 1,000 employees—about 6 % of the global workforce—cut last week.

Dana‑Farber Cancer Institute broke ground Monday on a 300‑bed, 450,000‑square‑foot cancer hospital that will open in 2031 on the former Joslin Diabetes Center site on Brookline Avenue.

The move follows Dana‑Farber’s 2023 decision to end its long‑standing partnership with Mass General Brigham and begin a new collaboration with Beth Israel Lahey Health, the state’s second‑largest health system. Boston Mayor Michelle Wu called the groundbreaking “a significant moment in history.” Dana‑Farber will house hospitalized cancer patients at Beth Israel Deaconess until the new hospital opens, with a staged transition of patients and outpatient services beginning this week. The partnership shift is expected to be completed by 2028.
