A new study reveals a simple and fast, label-free way to distinguish aggressive cancer cells by how they physically behave.

New study shows that aggressive cancer cells can be identified in a simple, new way; by how they physically behave, not just by their genes. Using specially textured Meta surfaces pattered with tiny ...

Scientists at Oregon State University have developed a new nanomaterial that triggers a pair of chemical reactions inside ...

CAR T-cell therapy has the potential to revolutionise how we treat certain types of cancer by genetically engineering someone’s own immune cells to attack the disease – but it is also cumbersome and ...

Researchers at the University of Chicago have developed a modular cancer immunotherapy that can be switched on, off or reprogramed to attack different cancers. Promising initial testing results, ...

Cancer cells can brainwash their neighbors. Like the CIA deploying secret agents to turn an enemy, tumors use a similar strategy to manipulate nearby cells. The tumors’ agents are mitochondria, the ...

Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a fast-growing cancer that forms in the lung. It's one of two types of lung cancer. The other type is non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). SCLC is less common than ...
