3D tumor mapping reveals new insights into cancer biology and treatment

A new analysis led by researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis has revealed detailed 3D maps of the internal structures of multiple tumor types. These cancer atlases reveal how different tumor cells - and the cells of a tumor's surrounding environment - are organized, in 3D, and how that organization changes when a tumor spreads to other organs.

Study reveals the role of eye movements in Parkinson's disease

Rapid side-to-side eye movements can help stabilize posture, avoid falls and maintain balance for people with Parkinson's disease, just as they can for healthy people. This seemingly counterintuitive conclusion was reached by researchers at São Paulo State University (UNESP) in Brazil and the University of Lille in France in a study supported by FAPESP. An article on the study is published in the journal Biomechanics.
