Learn about what DNA repair looks like under a microscope.

… Friday, May 19, 2017 Summary When DNA is damaged, a cell stops dividing and recruits “lifeguard proteins” and repair proteins to get its life cycle back on track. The first microscope was invented almost 500 years ago, when two Dutch scientists placed lenses in a tube and found that they could magnify

MSK investigators report exciting results for a new molecule that can block 16 different mutated forms of the KRAS protein. In the lab, the compound was effective against many cancer cell lines and in mouse models of lung cancer and colorectal cancer.

… Wednesday, May 31, 2023 KRAS was one of the first cancer genes ever discovered, but for a long time the cancer-causing KRAS protein was considered “undruggable” with targeted therapy. That started to change in May 2021, when the Food and Drug Administration granted accelerated approval to sotorasib (

An analysis of germline DNA in people with advanced cancer finds that inherited mutations may be more common than expected in this group.

… Tuesday, September 5, 2017 Summary An analysis of germline DNA in people with advanced cancer finds that inherited mutations may be more common than expected in this group. The findings have implications for genetic counseling and screening. Memorial Sloan Kettering’s genomic-sequencing test, called

September is Pediatric Cancer Awareness Month and at MSK, we continue to work to advance research to bring about better treatments and awareness to our youngest and most vulnerable patients not only in September, but every day.

… Tuesday, September 1, 2020 When we think about progress in fighting cancer, some of the most hopeful stories over the last few years have involved advances in treating children diagnosed with pediatric cancers. Once uniformly fatal, today, many children are thriving, beating the odds that once were stacked
