An immunotherapy drug delivery system created at Yale that can carry multiple drugs inside a tiny particle is heading toward its first phase of clinical trials for a possible new treatment for cancer.A cutaway illustration of the nanogel developed by...
As the massive international 1000 Genome project winds to a close in its efforts to define personal genomes, Yale researchers illustrate the importance of maternal and paternal contributions to an individual’s genetic makeup. The lab of Mark Gerstein, the...
A Yale research team has created a mutant protein-making factory in bacteria that churns out proteins containing beta-amino acids, molecules not normally found in nature but capable of creating longer-lasting and life-saving medicines.
The research...
Glioblastomas, a deadly form of brain cancer, may be yet another cancer that responds to immunotherapy, a new Yale-led study suggests. An analysis of brain tissue from glioblastoma patients shows immune system response to tumors was strengthened when...
Research on chronic lung diseases has primarily focused on studying conditions, such as emphysema or lung fibrosis, in isolation. In a new study, Yale scientists identified a common genetic network for two chronic lung diseases that could inform both...
