An oncology student has shocked TikTok with a viral video that offers a glimpse into how quickly cancer cells can grow. The microscope footage, shared by Sophie Williams, 23, a final-year PhD student ...

Tracking how cancer cells develop in real time How these differences in the genome and in epigenetic control arise in cells, and how they are passed on to their daughter and granddaughter cells, has ...

New NE-AFM method measures nuclear stiffness in living cells. It shows cancer nuclei change softness with chromatin and environment, aiding diagnosis and treatment. By employing a technique called ...

Even when cancer surgery goes well, it’s far from guaranteed that all the cancer has been removed. The excised tumor is sent to a pathology lab, which analyzes it under a microscope to estimate how ...

When cancer cells are physically squeezed, they mount an instant, high-energy defense by rushing mitochondria to the cell nucleus, unleashing a surge of ATP that fuels DNA repair and survival. This ...

According to the ‘grow or go’ model, cancer cells can switch between invasive and proliferative states. A zebrafish model of skin cancer shows that the invasive switch is triggered by mechanical ...

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – With help from research at the University of Washington, surgeons may soon be able to identify cancer cells in real-time while in the operating room. That research recently ...

Russell has a PhD in the history of medicine, violence, and colonialism. His research has explored topics including ethics, science governance, and medical involvement in violent contexts. Russell has ...

The goal is not to replace the pathologist -- you probably don't want to trust your entire cancer screening to a machine just yet. Share on Facebook (opens in a new window) Share on X (opens in a new ...

Researchers at the Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), Kanazawa University, report in ACS Applied Nano Materials a new method to precisely measure nuclear elasticity—the stiffness or softness ...
