A team of researchers from Yale and the University of Connecticut (UConn) has developed a nanoparticle-based treatment that targets multiple culprits in glioblastoma, a particularly aggressive and deadly form of brain cancer.
The results are published Feb...
Yale researchers are developing a skin cancer treatment that involves injecting nanoparticles into the tumor, killing cancer cells with a two-pronged approach, as a potential alternative to surgery.
The results are published in the Proceedings of the...

Inside a tumor, chatter abounds. Multiple cell types are constantly communicating with each other, exchanging various types of information. Some are working together against the tumor, while...
When it comes to e-cigarettes, the ingredients listed are not all that users are consuming. Yale researchers found that chemical reactions in flavored liquids of the popular Juul e-cigarette create unexpected chemicals that can irritate users’ airways....
When it comes to heart disease, the health of the scaffold where cardiac cells grow may be a much bigger factor than previously believed.
Stuart Campbell, associate professor of biomedical engineering & cellular and molecular physiology, led a team of...
Yale researchers have discovered how metastasis, the spread of cancer cells throughout the body, is triggered on the molecular level, and have developed a tool with the potential to detect those triggers in patients with certain cancers. The discovery...
Yale researchers have found that a type of air pollution is much more complicated than previous studies indicated.
Using high-powered equipment to analyze air samples, the researchers were able to get a detailed look at the molecular makeup of organic...
