 Generative AI may help scientists connect the many layers of cancerGenerative AI may help scientists connect the many layers of cancer
 
A Cell Perspective argues that generative AI models could help tackle cancer’s multiscale, multimodal complexity by complementing the Hallmarks of Cancer framework. It proposes that models capable of complex pattern recognition, multimodal fusion, and contextual reasoning could improve cancer detection, biological discovery, and precision oncology, while still requiring rigorous validation and human oversight.

An international group led by researchers from the RIKEN Center for Integrative Medical Sciences (IMS) in Japan have discovered associations between pathogenic variants of the BRCA 1 and 2 genes and four types of cancer. Published in ESMO Open, the findings expand the potential for personalized medicine to several cancer types that currently have limited treatment options and poor prognoses.
 
   Concerns rise over breast cancer risk and gender-based efficacy of OcrevusConcerns rise over breast cancer risk and gender-based efficacy of Ocrevus
 
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is reviewing a petition to revoke the approval of Roche's top-selling drug ocrelizumab (Ocrevus) for treating primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS) - a form of MS thought to affect around 15 % of patients.

Higher stress and BMI tied to earlier puberty in girlsNew research links stress, BMI, and hormone patterns to pubertal timing, revealing implications for long-term health and early intervention strategies.
 
 
 New imager separates UV and infrared light to find cancerous nodes
 
New imager separates UV and infrared light to find cancerous nodesResearchers have developed a compact camera that captures ultraviolet, near-infrared and visible images using a single chip. Inspired by the multiwavelength vision capability of the mantis shrimp, the camera could help surgeons identify lymph nodes connected to a tumor and assess whether cancer has spread to them, making cancer surgery safer and less invasive.
 
 
 ACP recommends biennial mammography for women aged 50 to 74
 
ACP recommends biennial mammography for women aged 50 to 74New guidance from the American College of Physicians (ACP) says all asymptomatic, average-risk females ages 50 to 74 should receive biennial screening mammography for breast cancer.
 
 
 Scientists uncover the molecular fingerprints of mRNA vaccine-induced T cells
 
Scientists uncover the molecular fingerprints of mRNA vaccine-induced T cellsThe advent of mRNA vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 in 2020 changed the course of the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, the Nobel-prize–winning technology is being adapted to fight cancer, with mRNA vaccines in clinical trials for melanoma, small cell lung cancer and bladder cancer, among others, opening the door to new ways of preventing and treating the disease.
