Caption

New research shows that the interactions between genes expressed at different levels can impact cell survival. Studying those interactions can help researchers understand why individuals respond differently to treatment and identify subtypes of certain cancers such as this triple-negative (MDA-MB-231) breast cancer cell seen here during cell division.
