About 1.2 million people with HIV in the United States live relatively normal lives with uncompromised immune systems and the virus medically controlled. But there are two rising concerns, said Ge Jin, a professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at Case Western Reserve University School…

Discovery offers hope to better understand how diseases like cancer, premature aging can be prevented Researchers from Case Western Reserve University have identified a new mechanism by which a protein known for repairing damaged DNA also protects the integrity of DNA by preserving its structural…

Case Western Reserve-led research team identifies biomarker to identify which patients with oropharyngeal cancer will benefit from therapy ‘de-escalation’ A Case Western Reserve University-led team of scientists has used artificial intelligence (AI) to identify which patients with certain head and…

Case Western Reserve University researcher Zheng-Rong Lu has been elected as a fellow of The National Academy of Inventors (NAI). The honor highlights the overall career and impact an inventor has had in their field and society as a whole. Lu is the M. Frank Rudy and Margaret Domiter Rudy…

Researchers identify set of patterns from CT scans to help predict patient’s response to chemotherapy Researchers at the Center for Computational Imaging and Personalized Diagnostics (CCIPD) at Case Western Reserve University have used artificial intelligence (AI) to identify patterns on computed…

Findings shed light on which tumors may respond better to immune checkpoint blockade therapy

The Cancer Center Seminar Series will kick off Friday, Sept. 10, at noon in Wolstein Research Building Auditorium (1-413). Partha Roy, associate professor of bioengineering and pathology at the University of Pittsburgh, will present “Targeting actin-regulatory protein in clear cell renal…

Members of the community are invited to the Great Lakes Breast Cancer Symposium—hosted virtually by the Case Comprehensive Cancer Center—Oct. 25–26. This annual symposium highlights ongoing basic, translational, clinical and population studies addressing the biological mechanisms, management and…

Case Western Reserve University scientists show that artificial intelligence tools can work effectively for different locations, populations For artificial intelligence (AI) to realize its full potential to benefit cancer patients, researchers will have to prove that their machine-learning…

Work has potential implications for new therapies to treat cancer and neurodegenerative disorders A team of Case Western Reserve University researchers has found a way to measure key characteristics of proteins that bind to RNA in cells—a discovery that could improve our understanding of how gene…
