It’s been her mission to inspire others to get screened for breast cancer, and this simple splash of color sparked hundreds of conversations about early detection. When she showed off her pink nails ...

The company’s transformer model interprets up to one billion DNA fragments in each blood sample, capturing molecular context at a scale hundreds of times greater than leading LLMs and demonstrating ...

Limited data are available on survival outcomes after sentinel-lymph-node biopsy alone as compared with lymphadenectomy in cervical cancer. In this multicenter, randomized, noninferiority trial, we ...

In multiple myeloma, abnormal plasma cells build up inside bone marrow -- the spongy tissue inside large bones where blood cells are produced. Over time, myeloma cells cause damage to bones, kidneys, ...

A magnetic microrobot navigates lung airways, drills microlesions, gathers biomarkers, and rapidly classifies cancer tissue with Raman sensing and machine learning in a single integrated workflow.
