Enlightening Results 💡 🙏🏽Thank you for the kind words! Patient’s are integral team members toward overall treatment plan. We fully believe it’s #Teamwork that helps to empower all parties involved in caring for a patient, including THE PATIENT. Hopefully the tides continue this path. #TumorBoardTuesday

1. ENTER #mRNAvaccines for #pancreaticcancer! Long-term #PDAC survivor story PART3. "Do #PDACs REALLY have vaccine neoantigens (NAs)"? (aren’t they lowly mutated?) If each patient = own NAs, how do you vaccinate? Maybe mRNA? But how? nature nature.com/articles/s4158… 👇🏽 [1/32]

The moving boxes are ready and waiting: Welcome to Prof Dr. Niels Halama and team - our new research division. They will work on integrating broad aspects of immunological parameters for the successful development and optimization of therapeutic approaches in clinical translation

Cancer escapes immunotherapies by mutating its surface. This means even groundbreaking #CARTCell therapies fail too often because of cancer resistance. But what if we could use #GenerativeAI to design CAR-T with de novo binders faster and smarter, targeting even resistant tumors?

Very excited about the first preprint from our lab TU München! This is a fun gene & cell therapy collaboration led by Andrea Schmidts's Lab. We use generative #AI to design new #CARTcell therapies. Check out Andrea's thread & thanks to the whole team! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
