U of T Researchers ‘Reverse Engineer’ Brain Cancer Cells to Find New Targets for Treatment
Researchers at the University of Toronto, The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) and the University of Calgary have ‘reverse engineered’ glioblastoma stem cells to uncover potential targets to treat the devastating form of brain cancer.
Discovery of Oral Cancer Biomarkers Could Save Thousands of Lives
Oral cancer is known for its high mortality rate in developing countries, but an international team of scientists hope its latest discovery will change that.
Mass Drug Administrations Can Grant Population Protection Against Malaria
Researchers have provided the first evidence that mass drug administration (MDA) can grant community-level protection against Plasmodium falciparum (P. falciparum) malaria.
Tree Dens Play a Critical Role for Giant Panda Mothers Rearing Cubs
In a paper recently published in the journal Biological Conservation, an international team of conservationists highlights the importance of tree dens for pandas raising infants in native habitats.
Bacterial Mix Helps Predict Future Change
A controlled, laboratory approach, along with computer simulations, has helped KAUST researchers to show that bacterial communities can homogenously disperse within aquatic ecosystems even with slow flowing water and the persistence of their preferred, localized conditions.
