Image Research news | Jan 17 2019 Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute Engineered immune cells target broad range of pediatric solid tumors in mice In mouse studies, a Stanford-led team has developed an engineered immune cell that eliminates several types of childhood tumors. The innovation may help patients with relapsed or metastatic disease.
