Drugs delivered during their molecular target’s daily downtime often do more harm than good, which is why biologists have struggled to pinpoint the precise timing of these molecules’ delivery systems

UGA researchers have targeted their studies in understanding how mitotic slippage occurs and how to prevent it

Indicator of chromosomal instability could be used to predict patient response to cancer treatment

Working with mouse models of colon and breast cancer, researchers demonstrated that when combined with chemotherapy, the nanoparticle reduced tumor growth substantially more than chemotherapy alone

A  new tumor-modeling platform called a tumor-microenvironment-on-chip can be used to visualize and quantify how different types of cancer cells react differently to the chemotherapy drug doxorubicin

Study could help physicians choose care path for some cancer patients

Attached to strands of DNA, they change shape, size, and chemistry to access diseased tissue, like a key fitting into a lock

Patients with high-risk B-ALL are most likely to relapse after treatment
