#Massive screen of drug combinations may find treatment for resistant, BRAF-mutant melanoma A team of Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) investigators has discovered a new combination of drugs that may be effective against one of the deadliest cancers, malignant melanoma.
The combination-pairing a drug targeted against mutations in the BRAF gene with a second drug that targets another important signaling pathway-was discovered through one of the largest screens of cancer drug combinations conducted to date.
"By conducting such a screen, we found one specific combination of agents that are already being used clinically that potentially could be used for a specific group of patients-those with BRAF-mutant cancers."
Previous efforts to screen potential drug combinations only analyzed use of a few drugs against a limited number of cell lines

"Traditional 3-D printers build hard objects typically made of plastic or metal, and they work by depositing material onto a surface layer-by-layer to create the 3-D object.
Printing each layer requires sturdy support from the layers below, so printing with soft materials like gels has been limited."

#Microfluidic cooling yields huge performance benefits in FPGA processors As microprocessors have grown in size and complexity,
Intel CPU clock speeds have remained mostly flat for years, while AMD FX-9590 and its R9 Nano GPU both illustrate dramatic power consumption differences as clock speeds change.
One of the principle barriers to increasing CPU clocks is that it extremely difficult to move heat out of the chip.
New research into microfluidic cooling could help solve this problem, at least in some cases. Microfluidic cooling has existed for years;
Previous systems, like Aquasar, still relied on a metal transfer plate between the coolant flow and the CPU itself.
and CPUS aren very good at spreading that heat out across the entire surface area of the chip.
By etching channels directly on top of a 28nm Altera FPGA, the research team was able to bring cooling much closer to the CPU cores
but whether or not it could ever scale to consumer hardware is a very different question.
As the feature image shows, the connect points for the hardware look decidedly fragile and easily dislodged or broken.
or AMD CPU would be non-trivial, and the companies would have to completely change their approach to CPU heat shields and cooling technology.
Still, technologies like this could find application in HPC clusters or any market where computing power is at an absolute premium.
Removing that much additional heat from a CPU die would allow for substantially higher clocks even with modern power consumption scaling n
