Using millions of microscope images magnified up to 130,000 times, researchers from Radboud university medical center and Toronto have unraveled the structure of two key proteins in the malaria parasite.

In the Netherlands, the National Immunisation Programme (NIP) was established in 1957. This programme provides free and voluntary vaccinations against 13 serious infectious diseases and has drastically reduced child and young adult mortality across the country.

Except for one key aspect, the setup is a familiar one in medicine: An expert diagnostician presents a particularly challenging case to a roomful of colleagues, carefully walking them through the patient's symptoms and initial test results.

Targeted drug delivery is a powerful and promising area of medicine. Therapies that pinpoint the exact areas of the body where they're needed - and nowhere they're not - can reduce the medicine dosage and avoid potentially harmful "off target" effects elsewhere in the body.

Tumors are not a comfortable place to live: oxygen deficiency, nutrient scarcity, and the accumulation of sometimes harmful metabolic products constantly stress cancer cells.
