"Cancer." It's a 6-letter word that carries a universal understanding of a condition affecting nearly 20 million people worldwide each year. The simplicity of the term, however, disguises an incredibly complex and varied disease process unfolding at the cellular level. #Cancer is no one thing, but rather a vast umbrella of diseases triggered by the out-of-control proliferation of rogue cells. Individual cells, tumors, patients, and types of cancer each bring a new layer of idiosyncrasy. How can we create biologically relevant models of a disease with so many variables? A newly standardized, off-the-shelf #tumoroid medium culture kit is poised to change the game for cancer researchers – enabling a 3D view into the tumor microenvironment and patient-derived tumor cells. 🆕 Read our NEW story to learn why Gibco OncoPro Tumoroid Medium Culture Kit is one of this year's contenders for SelectScience®'s Scientist' Choice Awards for new products with the biggest potential impact on research and lab work in 2023 and beyond.

🔬💉 Scientists are harnessing the power of AI to develop a more accurate blood test for ovarian cancer, a silent killer often detected too late for effective treatment. By tracking tumor-associated DNA fragments in the blood, researchers aim to improve early detection and intervention for this deadly disease, which ranks as the fifth leading cause of cancer death in the US. Dr. Victor Velculescu, senior study author, emphasizes the urgent need for better screening methods to combat ovarian cancer. #OvarianCancer #AI #EarlyDetection 🩺🔍

Very interesting paper showing removing the quality control protein, DCAF5, in an aggressive rhabdoid cancer, reverted malignant cells towards a more normal state. These results suggest a new approach to curing cancer, making cancer cells normal instead of killing them. #cancerresearch #cancerinnovation #tumoursuppressor #rhabdoid #DCAF5
