HER2-positive breast cancer, known for its aggressive nature due to the overexpression of the HER2 protein, poses significant challenges in treatment. Current standard treatments for HER2-positive breast cancer typically involve a combination of HER2-targeted therapies like trastuzumab, chemotherapy, and hormone therapy. However, the emergence of

New research from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) helped develop a machine-learning tool to help find cancer cells that remain after surgery; led to Food and Drug Administration approval for CAR T cell therapy against mantle cell lymphoma; tested a liquid biopsy approach that shows

“Our work shows that it is possible to re-create a fairly accurate three-dimensional (3D) model of the colon of some patients based on a single image taken by a capsule endoscopy camera – even if it’s a low-quality image,” says Pål Anders Floor, a researcher

Adoptive T-cell therapy has revolutionized medicine. A patient’s T-cells — a type of white blood cell that is part of the body’s immune system — are extracted and modified in a lab and then infused back into the body, to seek and destroy infection, or

Researchers from Tel Aviv University (TAU) have created a new type of glass with unique and even contradictory properties, such as being a strong adhesive (sticky) and incredibly transparent at the same time. The glass, which forms spontaneously when comes in contact with water at

In an important scientific advancement, researchers have explored significant mechanisms and health implications of polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposure in infants, analyzing their transfer through the placenta and into breast milk. This study marks a significant step forward in our understanding of environmental pollutants and their
