Researchers at USC have engineered a genetic tool that addresses a major obstacle in cancer immunotherapy by targeting the physical softness of solid tumors, potentially enabling CAR-T cell therapy to work against cancers it previously couldn't treat effectively.
Researchers have created a detailed map of how approximately 2 meters of genetic material organizes itself within tonsil cell nuclei, providing new understanding of how genes are accessed and used in immune responses.
