|
| | When you're going through cancer treatment or recovering afterwards, rest might seem like the best medicine. But research shows that exercise can also play an important role in managing cancer recovery. | |
|
| | A new preclinical study suggests that attacking triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) in two ways at once can kill cancer cells, slow tumor growth and limit the cancer's spread. Researchers at The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center – Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute (OSUCCC – James) developed the approach. | |

| | Surgical removal of a tumor remains the primary defense against most solid cancers. However, for surgeons in the operating room, differentiating between the outer edges of a tumor and healthy tissue is a challenge. | |
|
| | In a new paper published in Cell Reports Medicine, the UCL team outline how they, in collaboration with a University of Cambridge team, developed a new type of treatment-predicting computer program that uses an individual's detailed genetic fingerprint to explore which treatments, if any, may kill their cancer – especially when standard treatments have failed. | |
|
| | While AI offers the ability to improve human experts' ability to diagnose and treat diseases like breast cancer, well-publicized errors across the broader AI field are cause for concern. | |

|
| | Michigan's Oncology Sequencing Program, or MiOncoSeq, was the first of its kind in the nation to sequence patient tumors. | |
|
| | Researchers at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research have found that the functioning of a protein known as CDK1 in breast cancer is associated with their reaction to a widely used treatment. This finding has the potential to guide more personalized treatment strategies for individuals. | |
