The immune system's most sophisticated soldiers, B cells programmed for a single mission, are now understood to possess a startling ability to shed their identity and revert to a dangerously flexible state. Groundbreaking research has unveiled a surprising twist in cellular biology, demonstrating
For patients diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia, a notoriously aggressive blood cancer, the current standard of care initially offers a powerful ray of hope, but this victory is often fleeting as the treatment almost always fails when the cancer learns to outsmart it. This life-saving therapy
For patients diagnosed with the notoriously aggressive small cell lung cancer, the initial success of treatment often conceals a brutal truth about the formidable battle that lies ahead. This particular form of lung cancer presents one of modern oncology's most persistent and heartbreaking
