Genomics to Reshape Endometrial Cancer Treatment
May 1, 2013 — The most in-depth look yet at endometrial cancer shows that adding genomics-based testing to the standard diagnostic workup could change the recommended course of treatment for some ... > full storyMore: -
Researchers Look to Mathematics, Nature, to Understand the Immune System and Its Role in Cancer
May 1, 2013 — Can patterns in tree branches or the meandering bends in a river provide clues that could lead to better cancer therapies? According to a new study, these self-similar, repeating patterns in nature ... > full story -
Scientists Find Mutation Driving Pediatric Brain Tumors
April 30, 2013 — A type of low-grade but sometimes lethal brain tumor in children has been found in many cases to contain an unusual mutation that may help to classify, diagnose and guide the treatment of the tumors, ... > full story -
Discovery Helps Explain How Children Develop Rare, Fatal Disease
April 30, 2013 — Biochemistry researchers have published conclusive scientific evidence that the gene ATP7A is essential for the dietary absorption of the nutrient copper. Their work with laboratory mice also ... > full story -
Cell Response to New Coronavirus Unveils Possible Paths to Treatments
April 30, 2013 — Scientists have used lab-grown human lung cells to study the cells' response to infection by a novel human coronavirus (called nCoV) and compiled information about which genes are significantly ... > full story -
The Many Faces of the Bacterial Defense System
April 30, 2013 — Even bacteria have a kind of "immune system" they use to defend themselves against unwanted intruders -- in their case, viruses. Scientists were now able to show that this defense system is much more ... > full story -
Biologists Propose a New Research Roadmap for Connecting Genes to Ecology
April 30, 2013 — A team of researchers is proposing a new investigative roadmap for the field of evolutionary developmental biology, or "evo devo," to better understand how innovation at the genetic level can lead to ... > full story
