Study finds genetic alterations act together to produce more aggressive tumors in head and neck cancers.

New Keloid Research Raises Hope for Future Treatments
Similar Genetic Signature Associated with More Aggressive Oral Cancer found in Humans and Mice
Predicting the aggressiveness of oral cancers in humans could help tailor appropriate treatment and optimize outcomes, similar to the current approach to other cancer types such as breast cancer. However, to date, no diagnostic test is available that can predict the aggressiveness of oral cancer in humans. But that soon may change. Results of a […]

Otolaryngologists gain better understanding of causes, therapeutic options behind progressive hearing loss in children

The Future of Genomics Is Now: Dr. Thomas C. Spelsberg discusses the clinical implications
The genome project sequenced all three billion base pairs of human DNA, revealing the instructions cells need to build all the proteins in the body. But that was just a warm-up, according to Thomas C. Spelsberg, PhD, of the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn.
