This research investigates metabolic differences in ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) to predict breast cancer recurrence. Using gene expression data and computational modeling, it identifies increased fatty acid synthesis as a potential biomarker of…
2025
This research reimagines entrepreneurship education as solution-driven rather than profit-focused. The Citizenship Entrepreneurial Education Program integrates empathy, soft skills, and design thinking to empower youth to address real-world…

This research shows that breast luminal cells depend on the amino acid glutamine for growth, unlike basal cells. By removing glutamine, luminal cell growth stops, suggesting a metabolic vulnerability. These findings indicate that targeting nutrient…
