Two new studies from researchers at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center reveal how bacteria infiltrate tumors and could be helping tumors progress and spread. The research team also showed that the different microbial players in a tumor’s microbiome could influence how a cancer responds to treatment.
When the Women’s Health Initiative was announced in 1991, it was set to be the largest women’s health study ever conducted. The WHI scope is massive: the initiative has recruited more than 161,000 women and engaged more than 5,000 scientists from the U.S. and beyond.
