University of Queensland researchers who mapped cancer cell "neighborhoods" in the most common type of lung cancer have found cell metabolism plays a critical role in determining how lung cancer ...

Humans can’t live without lungs. And yet for 48 hours, in a surgical suite at Northwestern University, a 33-year-old man lived with an empty cavity in his chest where his lungs used to be. He was kept ...

Doctors in Chicago saved the life of a young Missouri man with a rare infection that had liquefied his lungs, hooking him up to what they have called a total artificial lung. The patient, whose name ...
