Cancer Metastasis: Cellular Decisions Predicted With Computer Program

Wednesday, July 16, 2008 - 11:28 in Biology & Nature

A new method may help to develop new treatments against cancer metastasis. Scientists have simulated on the computer how cells decide whether or not to migrate. Using their results, the researchers were able to predict the molecular targets within a cell that have to be hit so that its behavior changes in a particular direction.
