A newly discovered gene switch may help turn chemotherapy-resistant pancreatic cancer into a treatable disease. Researchers at Duke-NUS Medical School have discovered a molecular “switch” that determines whether pancreatic cancer cells respond to chemotherapy or resist it—a finding that could help shift some of the most treatment-resistant tumors into forms that respond better to existing […]

A new national poll highlights a surprising gap in public awareness about a major dietary risk factor for colorectal cancer. Many Americans still do not realize that processed meat is linked to colorectal cancer, according to a new poll. The survey, from the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and Morning Consult, found that nearly half […]

Researchers used molecular signatures in mobile DNA to trace the evolutionary origins of the cultivated strawberry genome. Polyploid genomes form when entire genomes duplicate and combine through repeated hybridization events. This process has played a major role in the evolution of many crop plants. However, understanding the internal structure of these genomes can be difficult, […]

Scientists may have been dramatically undercounting the number of vertebrate species on Earth. A large analysis of more than 300 studies suggests that for every recognized species of fish, bird, mammal, reptile, or amphibian, there may be two additional “cryptic” species that look almost identical but are genetically distinct. Hidden Species May Greatly Increase Known […]

A new computational approach reveals how subtle structural changes in polyheptazine imides can dramatically influence their ability to convert sunlight into chemical energy. Photocatalysis offers a promising way to convert abundant sunlight into useful chemical energy. Among the materials attracting attention for this purpose are polyheptazine imides, which possess distinctive structural and functional features that […]
