In Greek mythology, a terrifying swamp monster known as Hydra would regrow two heads for every one lost when one of the serpent's many necks was severed, making the beast nearly impossible to slay. Modern scientists think they may have discovered why cancer often behaves like Hydra, refusing to die despite every seemingly mortal blow that medicine inflicts upon it.
