Breast cancer is on the rise: data reveal drastic gap in survival rates Lack of screening and limited treatment options mean that low- and middle-income countries face higher death rates despite having fewer cases than wealthier nations. Giorgia Guglielmi Outlook | 21 February 2025 Putting ear...
In 2016, a member gave birth to a baby which was seen as a miracle inspiring everyone in the association. "It shows us that we can not only defeat cancer, but also create new life while fighting this illness," Jia said. As the association has become more widely known, they have been ...
Accurately detecting cancer mutational profiles from circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) remains a challenging task. Here, the authors develop MisMatchFinder, an algorithm that can detect mutational signatures in shallow whole-genome sequencing data from ctDNA across multiple cancer types. ...
The son of 1978 Iditarod champion Dick Mackey and brother of 1983 champion Rick Mackey, Lance Mackey overcame throat cancer in 2001 to win an unprecedented four straight Iditarod championships, from 2007 through 2010. It wasn’t just the 1,000-mile (1,609-kilometer) race across Alaska where ...
Research is needed to evaluate whether different screening strategies could play a part in reducing mortality rates, as well as ways to improve follow-up for current screening strategies and to ensure equitable access to treatment across populations. In addition, research is needed to determine whethe...

Researchers at Case Western Reserve University have found that risk factors historically linked to cancer mortality vary regionally across the United States (lower 48 states)—such that they believe those differences should be considered in developing tailored public-health interventions. For example, west...
