Caner-genome study challenges mouse 'avatars - Chloe Walker

A new cancer study challenges predictions of the responses to therapy. The study organizes the changes that occur to the tumors after they have been grafted. Patient-drived xenografts, (PDX) are model avatars for cancer patients. They are used to find the best treatment for each individual patient. 



 Heidi Ledford crated this article on October 9, 2017. Before this article I had no previous knowledge on cancer studies. This article was written for those who are instructed in hearing scientific and biological news. This article is a positive influence on the audience. The articles main purpose was to inform people about the new advances in technology for cancer treatments. This document realates to our lives today because it shows the development of science and technology.
