Discovery of a cancerous weakness: a new method pushes cancer cells into remission

The most effective targets for precision medicine can be found using algorithms created by researchers at the University of Michigan. These algorithms successfully identify the weakest targets in ovarian cancer cells, the genes these cells depend on to live in the human body. Removal of cancer cells DNA DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is a molecule …
