Researchers at the University of Jyväskylä, in collaboration with the University of Turku’s Institute of Biomedicine, University of Helsinki and Nova Hospital of Central Finland, have developed an advanced artificial intelligence tool for automatic analysis of colorectal cancer tissue slides.

The lab of Filippo Veglia, Ph.D., at The Wistar Institute has discovered a previously unknown mechanism for how aggressive brain cancers reprogram immune system cells from fighting cancer to enabling further tumor growth. The team’s findings were published in the paper “Functional reprogramming of neutrophils within the brain tumor microenvironment by hypoxia-driven histone lactylation,” from Cancer Discovery.
