The University of Wisconsin-Madison announces the launch of an innovative new resource for understanding how patients with inherited cancer risk are experiencing the emerging science of genetic medicine. Cancer Risk That Runs in Families is the latest in a series of collaborative studies conducted by the members of the Health Experiences Research Network. HERN is a network of researchers from UW
Trying to manage funding a lab while running a lab can be challenging for even the most experienced investigator. For Hong Chen, PhD, assistant professor of biomedical engineering at the McKelvey School of Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis and of radiation oncology at the School of Medicine, the ICTS provided invaluable assistance on her path to fund research on using ultrasound to
LITTLE ROCK — A national database for patient cancer images at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) will become the storage site for COVID-19 clinical images from across the United States and around the globe, including chest x-rays and CT scans of the body. This week, UAMS also became the first research institution to contribute de-identified images of COVID-19 to the storage
With support from the Virginia Commonwealth University C. Kenneth and Dianne Wright Center for Clinical and Translational Research, scientists at VCU Massey Cancer Center have identified key biological pathways that regulate the spread of tumor cells to vital organs. These findings may have a significant influence on the development of new therapies that slow or prevent breast cancer metastasis.
Melanoma, a relatively rare but deadly skin cancer, has been shown to switch differentiation states -- that is, to regress to an earlier stage of development -- which can lead it to become resistant to treatment. Now, UCLA researchers led by Dr. Thomas Graeber have found that melanomas can be divided into four distinct subtypes according to their stages of differentiation. Cell subtypes that de
