Behind the Paper
The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows
Repurposing a Simplified Diagnostic Tool to Increase Screening for HBV and HCV in Resource-limited Settings
What if we could use already existing tools or approaches in other diseases to help reduce the current burden of viral hepatitis?
Predicting Plastron Thermodynamic Stability for Underwater Superhydrophobicity
Non-wettable surfaces can mitigate the adverse effects of wetting-related phenomena. However, current achievements fall short of meeting industrial requirements because traditional goniometry does not provide meaningful information on the wetting regime or plastron stability underwater.
Tepotinib in Asian patients with METex14 skipping NSCLC
VISION, the largest study of a MET inhibitor for rare NSCLC with METex14 skipping mutations, shows tepotinib's efficacy and safety in Asian patients align with overall results. It provides the first health-related quality of life assessment for this group, supporting once-daily tepotinib treatment.
The need for predictive biomarkers of tumor hypoxia
In our paper we showcased how to retain low-abundant signals of tumor hypoxia from spatial omics data for biomarker discovery. In this post, we want to emphasize why tumor hypoxia is relevant and why there is still an urgent need for predictive molecular biomarkers.
