The modern man has long stopped compromising—neither on appearance, comfort, nor quality. We’ve gathered the top five hottest ...

UC San Diego researchers have developed a device that predicts breast cancer aggressiveness by measuring tumor cell adhesion. Weakly adherent cells indicate a higher risk of metastasis, especially in ...

How can we measure how sticky an adhesive tape is? This question is more complicated than it seems! We can describe stickiness in different ways. As you have already learned, adhesion describes how ...

Researchers developed a microfluidic device that sorts breast cancer cells by adhesion strength. Weakly adherent cells were ...

The device, which was tested in an investigator-initiated trial, works by pushing tumor cells through fluid-filled chambers and sorting them based on how well they adhere to the chamber walls.
