Cell biologist Emily Foley says that research to understand how chromosomes are distributed during cell division has led to the development of anticancer drugs that prevent errors in this process and ensure genetic stability in cells.
Oncologist and cancer biologist Richard White explains how his research with genetically modified zebrafish, which reproduce quickly and are optically transparent, has shed light on how melanoma and other cancers spread.
