Researchers around Niko Beerenwinkel have used computer simulations to show that tissue structure in different types of cancer is decisive in determining how a tumour develops. This information could make it possible to treat patients in a more targeted manner in future.

Researchers from the Machine Learning and Computational Biology Lab led by Karsten Borgwardt and their colleagues from the University Hospital Basel have shown that computer algorithms can predict antimicrobial resistance of bacteria faster than previous methods for resistance phenotyping. This could help treat serious infections more efficiently in the future.
