Fox Chase researchers identify risk factors for the spread of breast cancer to lymph nodes
2010-11-03
SAN DIEGO, CA (November 1, 2010)—Breast cancer, one of the most prevalent cancers in women, afflicts an additional 200,000 women each year and causes about 40,000 deaths annually. The disease often extends to neighboring lymph nodes, in part, through lymphovascular invasion (LVI)—a process in which cancer cells invade blood vessels or the lymphatic system—and can often translate into a poor prognosis for patients. Some scientists argue that evidence of LVI does not necessarily mean that the disease will recur in the lymph nodes after radiation to the breast alone, but ...
Radically simple technique developed to grow conducting polymer thin films

Their method involves the vigorous agitation of water, dense oil and polymer nanofibers. After this solution is sufficiently agitated it spreads over virtually any surface, creating a film.
"The beauty of this method lies in its simplicity and versatility," said California NanoSystems Institute (CNSI) researcher Richard ...
