Carbon Nanotubes Improve Protein Array Detection Limits (PhysOrg)
(PhysOrg.com) -- To detect cancer as early as possible, dozens of research groups are developing methods to detect trace levels of cancer-related proteins and genes in blood or other biological samples. Those efforts should get a boost thanks to new research results showing that carbon nanotubes can serve as incredibly sensitive optical labels for use in a wide variety of assay systems.

13 New Tumor-Suppressor Genes In Liver Cancer Identified By Cold Spring Harbor Science Teams (Medical News Today)
Over the years, hunting for cancer-related genes and understanding how they work has been an important, although time-consuming, exercise. At Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL), five different research groups have now combined their expertise to speed up the rate of discovering cancer-related genes and validating their function in living animals.

Patient, heal thyself: Grow your own new organ (Independent)
Surgeons crossed another medical frontier this week with the transplant of a windpipe grown from stem cells – the "mother" cells of the body capable of developing into specialised tissue. The success of the operation in Barcelona on Claudia Castillo, a 30-year-old mother-of-two, proved what scientists have long promised – that stem cells can now be used to fashion replacement body parts.
