Two leaders at MD Anderson Cancer Center have been elected to the Institute of Medicine (IOM) of the National Academies in recognition of their contributions to medical science and health care.
Guillermina Lozano, Ph.D., chair of Genetics, and David Piwnica-Worms, M.D., Ph.D., chair of Cancer Systems Imaging, were elected by members of the elite institution in October.

New research at MD Anderson Cancer Center has found that oxygen-deprived RNA molecules lead to tumor progression.
As tumors grow, they can outgrow their blood supply, leaving some areas of the tumor tissue oxygen starved, a condition known as tumor hypoxia. Conventional wisdom suggests the lack of oxygen would slow tumor growth. Surprisingly, the researchers found that cancer cells are able to adapt in order to keep growing. The...
