Tiny Device May Help Scientists Cure Colorectal Cancer May 6, 2021USC Despite advances in early detection and treatment, colorectal cancer remains the third-leading cause of cancer-related death for both men and women in the U.S. But promising new therapies might be on the horizon, thanks to innovative technology from USC scientists. The approach creates a tiny 3D replica of living human colon cells on a flexible membrane, or chip, about the size of a postage stamp. Scientists could use this colorectal cancer on a chip to study how malignant cells spread. It also may help them determine wh...

E-Mail Breast cancer affects 1/8 women in the USA, and rates of breast cancer are increasing. Humans are good at spotting cancer by looking at patterns in cells. But a new AI tool, ReceptorNet, can supplement human theragnosis by identifying the subtle differences in those patterns to inform better treatment decisions. ReceptorNet was developed in collaboration between Salesforce and Dr. David Agus at the Lawrence J. Ellison Institute for Transformative Medicine of USC. ReceptorNet could make treatment less expensive and more readily available, particularly in developing countries. Imagine ...
