Scientists studying cancer cells in humans commonly transplant them to grow human tumors in mice. It’s called a xenograft.  Problem is the tumors don’t always grow in mice as they would in patients.

Dr. Sean Morrison authored a study on this subject and talks about it in this week’s edition of KERA’s Vital Signs.
