Cancer cells hoard iron in unusually high quantities. Scientists have discovered how to leverage this to create safer cancer drugs.
The evidence that pollution causes cancer is weak. Lifestyle factors, like smoking, obesity, and alcohol, matter far more.
They call it “Judo T-cell therapy,” and it’s 100 times more potent than regular CAR-T cells.
Cancer likes glucose. So take it away.
It could lead to earlier diagnoses, better treatment, and fewer deaths from pancreatic cancer, which kills 88% of patients within five years.
Epigenetic entropy shows that you can’t fully understand cancer without mathematics.
Unless you're drinking a dozen diet sodas per day, you have nothing to worry about — and maybe not even then.
Scientists are finding tumor signals in spit that could be key to developing diagnostic tests for various types of cancer.
Positron emission tomography (PET) scans use positrons — the antimatter equivalent of an electron — to locate cancer in the body.
More than 90% of sexually active men will be infected with human papillomavirus in their lifetime. The virus may reduce fertility.
The president identified developing MCED tests as a priority for the Cancer Moonshot.
"The only options left were experimental approaches in clinical trials."
"Rational vaccinology" could lead to effective cancer vaccines.
Biotechnology can convert enemy viruses into anti-cancer mercenaries.
Most patients with cancer die from metastasis. Stopping it would be a major advance in cancer therapy.
Rapamycin is potentially the most powerful anti-aging drug ever discovered. However, due to its unlucky history, few know of it.
This small phase 1 study suggests that CRISPR-engineered T cells are safe and potentially effective, but there is a long way to go.
Certain cancers are striking earlier than they used to.
A new study provides the first proof-of-principle that genetic material transferred from one species to another can increase both longevity and healthspan in the recipient animal.
There may be a faster, less-painful way to use radiation against cancer.
Tumor cells traverse many different types of fluids as they travel through the body.
CRISPR, stem cells, and even cancer drugs are helping shape an AIDS-free future.
What if AI could tell us we have cancer before we show a single symptom? Steve Quake, head of science at the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, explains how AI can revolutionize science.

To put things in perspective, the cost of sequencing a single genome in 2012 was around $10,000.
A successful trial that tested a vaccine against bladder cancer in dogs could help develop a similar one for humans.
The miniaturization of particle accelerators could disrupt medical science.
People with higher immune resilience live longer, resist diseases, and are more likely to survive diseases when they do develop.
A new wave of preventative cancer vaccines are set to begin trials.
