A study published in JCO Clinical Cancer Informatics demonstrates that machine learning models incorporating patient-reported outcomes and wearable sensor data can predict which patients with non–small cell lung cancer are most at risk of needing […]

A research team in the Department of Pharmacology and Pharmacy at the LKS Faculty of Medicine of the University of Hong Kong (HKUMed), has conducted a pioneering study that found an association between walking speed […]

A new study from Karolinska Institutet, published in Nature Communications, reveals that cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) promote DNA replication licensing in human cells by relieving inhibitory signals from RB tumor suppressor proteins. The findings add a […]

Pediatric brain tumors are the deadliest form of childhood cancer, yet most treatments are adapted from adult care and often miss the mark. A new study led by a second-year medical student at Dell Medical […]

Nearly 50 new cancer therapies are approved every year. This is good news. “But for patients and their treating physicians, it is becoming increasingly difficult to keep track and to select the treatment methods from […]

Tumor immunotherapies, especially those leveraging T-cells to identify and eliminate cancer cells, represent a major breakthrough in cancer treatment. However, many tumor-associated antigens are not expressed at a high enough density on the cancer cell […]

A research team from the Department of Pathology at the University of Hong Kong’s LKS Faculty of Medicine (HKUMed) has discovered that atorvastatin, a widely used cholesterol-lowering drug, could become a powerful new weapon in […]

A simple AI model has been shown to perform on a par with experienced dermatologists when assessing the aggressiveness of a common form of skin cancer, squamous cell carcinoma. The research was headed by the […]
