Researchers have unlocked a way to grow the immune system’s “conductors” from stem cells, bringing ready-made cancer-fighting therapies a big step closer. For the first time, scientists at the Univers ...

The miniature models could exponentially accelerate vaccine development, cancer treatment research, and improved health outcomes across a spectrum of diseases. The left image shows the immune organ-on ...

Sloan Kettering Institute investigator Dr. Ming Li's lab is working to harness the power of the immune system against cancer. Investigator Ming Li, PhD, has dedicated his career to understanding the ...

Scientists have uncovered how a vitamin A metabolite can suppress anti-cancer immunity. Scientists at the Princeton University Branch of the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research have uncovered new ...

Immunotherapy has transformed healthcare and how physicians treat patients. Various forms of immunotherapy have been developed over the last two decades to target solid tumors and hematological ...

To better understand why some cancer patients struggle to fight off infections, Georgia Tech researchers have created tiny lab-grown models of human immune systems. These miniature models - known as ...

Though many research institutions have a common goal of finding new ways to treat or even cure cancer, the pathways to that goal are often diverse. One new study coming out of a La Jolla lab — in ...

India has taken a significant step forward in the field of immunology with the launch of its first dedicated complement testing laboratory, designed to improve the diagnosis of complex autoimmune and ...

These miniature immune system models -- known as human immune organoids -- mimic the real-life environment where immune cells learn to recognize and attack harmful invaders and respond to vaccines.

The left image shows the immune organ-on-chip, where the organoids (right) are grown to study the response of human donors. The right image shows development of types of immune cells relevant to the ...
