Histopathology is the gold standard in cancer diagnosis. However, attenuated total reflectance (ATR)-Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy has shown diagnostic potential in other settings.

Genetic studies have revealed many genes linked to both common and rare disease, but to understand how those genes bring about disease and use those insights to help develop therapies, scientists need ...

The scope of human cell type atlases widened considerably today. Formerly, landscapes of individual cell types were largely confined to single organs. But now, thanks to four single-cell RNA ...

Ravin Ratan, MD, MEd, of The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, explains the origins of soft tissue sarcomas within the body—which account for 1% of cancers in adult patients—how they are ...

In recent years, a virtual tidal wave of studies linking the expression of certain genes to complex diseases as varied as cancer and diabetes has raised hopes for major advances in medical treatment ...

Researchers developed a technique to recover intact cells from archived FFPE samples, potentially enabling new studies of disease, treatment response, and patient outcomes.

An interdisciplinary team of engineers and chemists at Penn State has laid the groundwork for 3D printing spheroids—tiny ...
