RESEARCHERS IDENTIFY GENES IN FRUIT FLIES THAT MAY SHED LIGHT ON HUMAN CANCER SPREAD (Cellulite removal)
RESEARCHERS IDENTIFY GENES IN FRUIT FLIES THAT MAY SHED LIGHT ON HUMAN CANCER SPREAD
By searching through all the genes in the fruit fly genome, Johns Hopkins scientists have identified those required for a certain type of cell migration and simultaneously captured a global view of all the genes turned on when cells are on the move.
High-Resolution CT Scan Modeling For Creating Facial Implants Aids In Facial Reconstruction Surgery
A preliminary study suggests that high-resolution computed tomography (CT) modeling allows surgeons to custom-design acrylic implants prior to reconstructive surgery for patients with severe defects in their faces and eye cavities. Such implants appear to offer excellent aesthetic results and are well tolerated over the long term, according to a report in the November/December issue of Archives of Facial Plastic Surgery, one of the JAMA/Archives journals.
