Our immune system relies on T cells to fight infections. But T cells don't just show up and react—first, they train, get a ...

Wistar Institute scientists have designed a two-vaccine approach that not only targets the tumors’ unique molecular identity ...

A cancer drug class best known for attacking tumors may also help your immune system remember them better. Researchers at ...

Fred Hutch Cancer Center scientists have developed an experimental strategy to give genetically engineered CAR T cells help they'd normally find within lymph nodes — but on the go, within the tumor.

During vaccination, the immune system is purposefully exposed to weakened, inactivated, or a component of pathogens so that the body can recognize their molecular structures in the future and mount a ...
