The study takes an initial step toward better understanding how the KRAS gene drives immune evasion and demonstrates a lowering of the KRAS activity, resulting in a more favorable environment to fight cancer.
Information from historical, archaeological and recent fossil records must inform current-day conservation, or else we risk losing these remarkable species forever.
Samples from the Jezero Crater, the landing site of NASA’s Mars 2020 Mission, may help to reveal evidence of Mars' climate changes during its existence and possible signs of previous life.
