Columbia researchers discover that DNA repair falters when cells can’t move damaged DNA to repair centers within the nucleus. The results could lead to better cancer treatments.
Columbia scientists have developed a new computational framework that can support precision cancer treatment by matching individual tumors with the drugs most likely to kill them.
