No matter how genetically different cancers are, they all depend on exactly two fuels: glucose and glutamine. The press-pulse strategy expl…
What happens when you move a tumor nucleus into a healthy cell — and a healthy nucleus into cancer cytoplasm? Researchers did exactly this.…
Normal cells extract 36 ATP from one glucose molecule. Cancer cells extract 2 — then dump lactic acid as waste, even when oxygen is availab…
For fifty years we have blamed cancer on broken genes. But the genome data revealed chaos — thousands of different mutations in every tumor…
How a sperm and an egg fuse into one cell that carries a full human being inside it, and what the new genome-editing tools could do to that…
Neuroscientist David Eagleman explores one of science's deepest questions: the brain is a measurable physical organ, but the mind — the red…
Dr. Thomas Seyfried's 30 years of research show that cancer is not a genetic disease but a mitochondrial metabolic disease — and that the k…
Checkpoint inhibitors, CAR-T cells, and the long story of teaching the immune system to see what cancer made invisible.
Cancer cells are locked into burning glucose — they cannot use ketones or fat. Based on Dr. Thomas Seyfried's research, here is the science…
Siddhartha Mukherjee explains how stem cells originate in every tissue, why their numbers decline with age, and how CRISPR editing, CAR-T t…
