• Traceable nanoparticles may be the next weapon in cancer treatment

  Small particles loaded with medicine could be a future weapon for cancer treatment. A recently-published study shows how nanoparticles can be formed to efficiently carry cancer drugs to tumor cells. And because the particles can be seen in MRI images, they are traceable.

• First dna sequencing of cancer performed

The dna sequencing gives a picture of what cancer looks like and is a step towards better understanding of how cancer arises.
