The computational power available to researchers has grown exponentially over the years, allowing broad analysis of genetics involved in cancer to get new ideas for exploring new methods of therapy.

The younger a child is, the more rambunctious they tend to be.  While this behavior is typically seen as normal, more and more younger children today are being diagnosed as ADHD as compared to their older classmates.  

Food allergies can limit what you eat and can be quite painful. A new study has identified a way to help diagnose and treat a painful food allergy that affects the esophagus.

Several groups looking at data from broad genetic studies have noticed differences in cancer risk for different populations according to ethnic make up.

Extremely premature babies are already at high risk for impaired brains, but those born to obese mothers may be at even more a disadvantage.

While widely researched, highly sought after and well-funded, vaccines for most cancers aren't easy to implement. Since a vaccine trains the immune system to attack foreign cells, and cancer cells are still human, the level of precision is difficult.

There's no place like home, but for newborns, there's no going back to the womb. Rocking out to mama music, however, appears to be good for their health, especially for preemies.

You may never have heard of this type. Cancer of the appendix is usually thought to be a colon cancer, since the useless organ is part of the 5-6 foot long tube that follows the small intestine.  

A recent study examined cancer genetics to determine why resistance to Iressa ( gefitinib ), a drug commonly used in treating non small cell lung cancer.
