Scientists at GE’s Global Research have created a system called MultiOmyx. This system is changing how cancer researchers look at cells by allowing researchers to see an extremely detailed sample of proteins in one tissue sample. By being able to see a more detailed sample, researchers will be able to learn more about tumors and how well a treatment may or may not work.
