Effects of Cancer-Causing KRAS Mutations Are More Diverse Than Previously Thought
The effects of KRAS mutations underlying many different types of cancer are more diverse than previously thought, according to a new study. Different mutations in the same amino acid of the KRAS protein have so varied effects on protein function that they may require different approaches when it comes to treatment and drug development.

Cool Brains Could Be Key to Exoskeleton Use
Researchers have developed a model for predicting hand movement trajectories based on cortical activity: signals are measured directly from a human brain. The model's simplicity means it can be implanted into the cranium without excess heat being produced. This technology could drive exoskeletons that would allow patients with impaired mobility to regain movement.
