Study identifies new treatment target for metastatic cancer

A new University of Kentucky Markey Cancer Center study reveals more about changes that happen to cancer cells when they metastasize and identifies a promising target for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer.

Genetics

Upgraded computational tool gets more out of multi-omics data

Despite the astounding advances made in understanding the biologic underpinnings of cancer, many cancers are missing obvious genetic drivers. When scientists can't pinpoint the factors that drive cancer, treating it can be ...
