Physical processes shape timing of cancer and antibiotic treatment

Researchers led by Dr. Jona Kayser at MPZPM report that physical processes within dense cell populations strongly influence the optimal timing of treatment cycles in cancer and antibiotic therapy. Treatment resistance is a central obstacle in both fields, and the findings suggest that scheduling therapies around these dynamics could improve outcomes. The work, associated with the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light, points to a greater role for biophysics in designing treatment schedules.

Why now: New research offers a fresh approach to overcoming treatment resistance, a major challenge in oncology and infectious disease
