Highlights from Recent Cancer Literature

Research highlights: Highlights from the last year in nanomedicine.

Synthetic biology attempts to reproduce emergent behaviors from natural biology with the goal of creating artificial life. The main challenge in this field is the reduction of complex phenomena into functional components, which can be individually engineered and later combined to replicate the macroscopic behavior of the model biological system. Nawroth and coworkers reverse-engineered the mech...

Recent highlights from BESIII: XYZ states

In this contribution we review recent results from the BESIII experiment. We focus on the investigation of XYZ states and the discovery of new charged charmonium like structures. Two isospin triplets Z(3900) and Z(4020) have been discovered, decaying into π±J/ψ and π±hc, respectively. Structures with compatible parameters have been found decaying to DD̄∗ and D∗D̄∗, respectively, suggesting that t...
