Through new research, CRUK scientists have uncovered a new technique to decipher how millions of individual cells are communicating with each other in miniature lab grown tumours. The study marks the first-time scientists have been able to analyse many different signalling molecules at once in individual cells within replicas of patients’ tumours. By understanding how
New study has revealed that supercharging the mutation rate in cancer cells could create a “powerful vaccine” that is able to boost the effectiveness of immunotherapy. The international study, which was carried out by scientists at The Institute of Cancer Research, London, the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, US, and the University of Leeds, forced cancer
A new handheld 3D printer can deposit sheets of skin to cover large burn wounds and its “bio-ink” can increase the healing process. Developed by a team of researchers from the University of Toronto Engineering and Sunnybrook Hospital, the device covers wounds with a uniform sheet of biomaterial, stripe by stripe. The bio-ink dispensed by
