We're incredibly proud to announce that Ernie Johnson Jr.—iconic Sports Emmy award winner, author, and television host—has joined us as our newest Global Brand Ambassador.

This partnership represents a game-changing play in men's health during National Men's Health Month.

"I've faced cancer. I've lost loved ones. And I've spent my life sharing stories that matter," says Ernie. "This story—about screening, survival, and saving lives—matters. I'm honored to use my voice with ZERO to help men everywhere take action before it's too late."

Ernie's leadership will help amplify our Blitz the Barriers initiative, a $20 million campaign to close the prostate cancer survival gap for Veterans, Black men, and underserved communities.

Together, we're moving the conversation about prostate cancer out of the shadows and into every locker room, living room, and community across America.

A doctor just performed surgery from 5,000 miles away — and he successfully removed a prostate tumor.

In a groundbreaking medical milestone, a Chinese surgical team has successfully performed the world’s first transcontinental remote robotic prostatectomy, linking Rome to Beijing in real time.

Dr. Zhang Xu, director of urology at the PLA General Hospital, operated from a surgical console in Italy, while robotic arms executed his movements on a patient over 8,000 kilometers (5,000 miles) away in China.

Enabled by high-speed 5G and fiber-optic networks, the procedure showcases how telesurgery can erase borders in critical healthcare delivery.

This pioneering operation not only demonstrates the power of robotic precision and real-time connectivity but also signals a future where expert surgeons can treat patients globally without physical proximity.

A backup medical team in Beijing ensured patient safety during the procedure, but the successful coordination and outcome suggest that telesurgery may soon become a standard in specialized care—especially in underserved or remote areas.

This Pride Month, we’re proud to embrace our commitment to inclusivity and support for ALL in the prostate cancer community. Our rainbow logo this month reflects our commitment to inclusive care and support for everyone in our community, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.

LGBTQ+ individuals face unique challenges in healthcare access and cancer screening. We’re dedicated to breaking down these barriers through education, advocacy, and creating safe spaces where everyone feels welcome and respected.

Prostate cancer doesn’t discriminate, and neither do we. Whether you’re a patient, caregiver, healthcare provider, or ally, you belong in our community.
