Unique immune cell structures in tumors can boost immunotherapy effects and enhance survival for patients with high-risk advanced melanoma, but testing is labor-intensive and not yet common. New AI-driven testing methods utilize low-cost and easily accessible technologies. They are designed to expedite testing, which could in turn facilitate physician-patient discussions on potential immunotherapy benefits.

Researchers, led by Penn State biologists, have comprehensively predicted the location of potential non-B DNA structures in the newly available telomere-to-telomere genomes of the great apes.

Prostate cancer has distinct genetic properties in different groups of men that could be targeted to improve patient outcomes, new research suggests.

We know exercise is good for our body, but what about our brains? A new study from the University of Missouri suggests that exercise plays a crucial role in keeping our minds sharp, even when one of the brain’s key energy sources isn’t available.

The study, led by Mizzou researchers Taylor Kelty and R. Scott Rector, offers fresh insight into brain health and suggests that exercise could play a bigger role in preventing cognitive decline than previously thought.
