Pancreatic “organoids” mimic the real thing
Studying these organoids could help researchers develop and test new treatments for pancreatic cancer.
A pen to pin down the fringes of cancer
The MasSpec Pen has shown to accurately differentiate healthy and cancerous tissue from banked pancreas samples during surgery.
MasSpec Pen shows promise in pancreatic cancer surgery
The MasSpec Pen has shown to accurately identify tissues and surgical margins directly in patients and differentiate healthy and cancerous tissue from banked pancreas samples.
Pancreatic organoids on a chip platform
An organoid on chip platform mimics robustly key features of human pancreas development. This is a stepping stone towards reliable diagnostic solutions for early-stage pancreatic cancer.
Using polarized LEDs for detection of cancer progression
Researchers have experimentally demonstrated a novel cancer diagnosis technique based on the scattering of circularly polarized light.
Bioprinting mini pancreas to fight against diabetes
EPFL spin-off Readily3D has developed a novel system that can print biological tissue in just 30 seconds.
On the path to safe nanomedicine
Scientists have now developed guidelines that should enable the safe development of nanoparticles for medical use.
Wearables prove helpful in monitoring cancer patients
Fitness trackers can be valuable tools for assessing the quality of life and daily functioning of cancer patients during treatment, a new study has found.
