Klaus Pantel and Christoffer Beghardt will discuss advances in early cancer biomarker detection and its clinical implications.

Scientists found evidence of telomeres in the 1930s, but did not identify them until the 1970s. Since then, researchers’ understanding of telomeres and their role in DNA repair, aging, and disease has expanded exponentially.

New directions for cell therapy extend beyond T cells and cancer treatment.

Researchers use machine learning to identify generic drugs that are promising candidates for affordable and accessible cancer treatments.

Christine Brown develops CAR T cell therapies that may one day provide a long-sought-after cure for malignant brain cancers.

New technology turns red blood cells into artificial antigen-presenting cells. These cells activate T cells to attack HPV-driven cancers.
