Should Older Prostate Cancer Patients Jump Off the Active Surveillance Train?
Come December, as I observe my “pros-mitzvah” — 13 years on active surveillance (AS) for very low-risk prostate cancer — I feel I’m at a tipping point. Should I stay the course and keep monitoring my lesion — a single Gleason 6 of less than 1 mm seen back in 2010 and never again in […]
Unprecedented view of a single catalyst nanoparticle at work: X-rays reveal compositional changes on active surface under reaction conditions
A DESY-led research team has been using high-intensity X-rays to observe a single catalyst nanoparticle at work. The experiment has revealed for the first time how the chemical composition of the surface of an individual nanoparticle changes under reaction conditions, making it more active. The team led by DESY’s Andreas Stierle is presenting its findings […]
