Explaining breast cancer predictions from machine learning
Researchers applied statistical analyses to identify how machine learning models make breast cancer predictions. They argued that the more…
Finding cancer cells in a cocktail of complex tissues
Scientists used technology similar to ChatGPT to develop a tool that can differentiate between the DNA of cancer cells and healthy cells in…
Bacteria join forces with viruses to fight cancer
Researchers infected bacteria with cancer-fighting viruses to help treat cancer. Their new treatment was 100% successful in shrinking tumors…
A better way to detect canine cancer
Scientists developed new genetic protocols to detect different types of cancer in dogs from veterinary clinics.
Cancer cells exploit an immune protein to evade treatment
Scientists tested several immunotherapy-resistant tumors and found that an evolutionary change in an immune protein makes humans more…
Body fat can predict mortality risk in young adults
Researchers showed that body fat percentage can predict long-term mortality in young adults better than body mass index or waist size.
Scientists use modified DNA to classify breast cancer
Researchers used DNA tags to divide an aggressive form of breast cancer into 2 major subtypes. They found these subtypes respond differently…
Scientists use bioactive glass to treat bone cancer
Researchers showed that bioactive glass administered with gallium oxide in the laboratory can reduce cancer cells and leave noncancerous…
Is there an optimal time of day to take cancer meds?
Scientists showed that some cancer medications work better when taken at a certain time of day. They suggested doctors combine optimal…
