Mysterious plant hormones called strigolactones have long eluded scientists. Yet understanding how plants use them to adapt & survive can help improve agriculture. New work by UC San Diego engineers could made it easier to get to the root of these hormones. today.ucsd.edu/story/microbia…

For decades, NIH funding has fueled breakthroughs in cancer, heart disease and more. But a new policy puts progress at risk. We’re asking Congress to oppose this abrupt change. Email your lawmakers! 🔗 Learn more: bit.ly/3EC0mtT

By assessing how “sticky” tumor cells are, researchers have found a potential way to predict whether a patient’s early-stage breast cancer is likely to spread. The discovery could help doctors identify high-risk patients and tailor their treatments. bit.ly/41xoAwW

Research breakthroughs—from lifesaving treatments to cutting-edge technology—are made possible with federal funding. But today, that funding is at risk. Without it, progress stalls. Help us protect research funding: ucsd.edu/research-innov… #BehindEveryBreakthrough #SaveResearch
