A high-resolution map of the human brain provides new insights and tools for understanding the roles of specialized brain regions in health and disease. Researchers discovered an unexpected way that breast cancer cells with mutant BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes become resistant to treatment—a crucial step toward improving therapies. In work that could lead to new approaches to treat joint surfaces damaged by osteoarthritis or injury, stem cells were grown on a 3-D scaffold to mimic a hip joint surface.
