A step forward in defeating 'Godzilla-like' cancer

Assoc Prof Huang Zhiwei from the Dept of Biomedical Engineering at NUS Faculty of Engineering teamed up with Dr Lim Chwee Ming at the National University Cancer Institute, Singapore, to fine-tune the Raman spectroscopy technique for detecting nose cancer. Using this technique, the team aims to detect cancerous signals 10 to 15 per cent sooner, which would translate to a higher survival rate and faster recovery.
