Scientists feel that due to more cooked carbs, the human brain could consume more calories and grow bigger.
New research suggests that the chance of survival of a cancer patient is hidden in their DNA. Predicting the survival chance of cancer patients accurately has been a great challenge for the medical community for a very long time. Over the years, several studies were conducted in effort to find a reliable method that enables doctor to approximate a patient's survival change depending on the type of cancer they have. However the predictions have still failed to be reliable despite the effort.
