Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the U.S. Learn the main types, warning signs, and the prevention tip dermatologists say not to skip.

Structural nanomedicine — what helped give us the COVID vaccine — may now be the key to a potent blood cancer treatment that’s had remarkable early results.

Cancer occurs when cells ignore normal growth controls, often due to genetic changes that alter how your genes function.

Human DNA constantly refolds in 3D space, and these looping dynamics regulate gene expression and cell identity.

While the genes involved can differ, this example illustrates how most cancers arise. Accumulated DNA mutations, acquired either over time (ageing naturally leads to some DNA mistakes) or from ...

Scientists have uncovered an unexpected reason why some cancers return after initially responding to treatment.

How does our DNA store the massive amount of information needed to build a human being? And what happens when it's stored incorrectly? Jesse Dixon, MD, Ph.D., has spent years studying the way this ...

In an experimental trial, a personalized mRNA vaccine was tested in 14 individuals with an aggressive form of breast cancer. It trained immune cells to target cancer-specific mutant proteins, inducing ...

Scientists have discovered why ovarian cancer spreads so rapidly through the abdomen. Cancer cells enlist normally protective abdominal cells, forming mixed groups that work together to invade new ...

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, marked by the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells. What makes it more dangerous is the ability of cancer cells to move quickly through the ...

Researchers recently tried an experiment: Gather people who had the same kind of lung cancer and put them on the same type of treatments to fire up their immune systems. The only difference was that ...

MIAMI, FLORIDA (Feb. 5, 2026) – Overcoming tumor resistance to chemotherapy drugs has long been a challenge for oncology clinicians and researchers. Now, a new study suggests that blocking a key ...
