Two new cancer cell line databases bursting with genomic and drug profiling data may help researchers identify drug targets.
Small circles of extrachromosomal DNA appear to be widespread in mammals, and may be byproducts of small deletions in the nuclear DNA of somatic cells.
After 10 years in development, a novel mouse population proves its mettle in complex trait research.

Researchers develop a tiny device that motors around the stomach, fueled by its acidic environment.
Starvation paired with cancer drugs slowed or stopped unchecked cell growth in yeast and mouse models of cancer, outpacing or matching the isolated effects of chemo.
A single mutant cell breaks free of its neighbors in the early stages of cancer development.
Research in yeast shows that aneuploidy is both a consequence of and an adaptation to stress.
