For mechanical engineering professor Jaydev Desai, breast cancer awareness is more than a month-long endeavor. Though October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Desai has spent the past year and a half developing a robot that can perform biopsies and destroy tumor cells all in one session, making the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer less time-consuming and more accurate. "It will revolutionize how procedures are performed for breast cancer diagnosis and treatment." Desai said. (source: media.diamondbackonline.com)
