Medical Xpress / Researchers find biomarker of chemotherapy resistance in relapsed lung cancer
Researchers from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have discovered that some cancer cells express the YAP1 protein only after treatment with chemotherapy, allowing them to survive by becoming more invasive ...
Tech Xplore / How renewable energy can be most efficiently integrated into the electric grid
Renewable energy-based distributed energy resources (DERs) such as solar panels and electric vehicles can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but their integration in distribution grids introduces challenges due to the ...
Phys.org / Evolution has reused the same genes for 120 million years, study shows
Scientists have shown that evolution has been using the same genetic "cheat sheet" for over 120 million years, suggesting that life on Earth may be more predictable than first imagined. The international team, led by scientists ...
