Scientists in new push to control cancer before curing it
By Kate KellandLONDON — Cancer scientists in Britain are launching what they call the world's first "Darwinian" drug development program in a bid to get ahead of cancer's ability to become resistant to even the newest treatments and recur in many patients.While not abandoning the search for an ultimate cure, the "anti-evolution" project will re-focus on turning cancer into a disease controllable with drugs for many years.This would be a little like HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, the scientists told reporters at a briefing."Cancer's ability to adapt, evolve and become drug-resistant is the cause of the vast majority of deaths from the disease and the biggest challenge we face in overcoming it," said Paul Workman, chief executive of Britain's...

Fountain of youth? Study finds new anti-aging compound in plant

Morning lark? Night owl ? Blame it on your genes
Tokyo — If you find you just can’t spring out of bed on time every morning, you may be able to blame it on your genes, a new scientific study has found.The research analyzed a wealth of genetic data gathered from the DNA testing website 23andme and a British “biobank” to better understand what makes someone a “morning lark” or a “night owl”.“This study is important because it confirms that your morning or evening preference is, at least to some extent, determined by genetic factors,” said Michael Weedon, a professor at the University of Exeter Medical School, who led the research.The study is the largest of its kind -- it looked at data from nearly 700,000 people -- and found that significantly more genetic factors are tied to when people sleep and wake than previously...
