Explore topics ranging from checkpoint inhibitor therapies, TIRF microscopy to automated liquid chromatography

10 Aug 2021 Immune checkpoints are molecules that signal and control the synapse between T cells and antigen presenting cells (APCs). Checkpoint inhibitor therapies aim to target and inhibit the signals that ‘switch off’ T cells, leading to upregulation of T cell activation and tumor cell killing. The mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) mimics the T cell and APC synapse by co-culturing immune cells from two individuals. Consequently, MLR is used as a model, to discover the effects of checkpoint inhibitor drugs in vitro, furthering biological research applications and drug discovery processes....

INDIA New England News Washington– After being delayed over a year due to the pandemic, NASA has launched a mission with scientific instruments aboard a self-propelled ocean glider and several airplanes to study the role of small-scale whirlpools and ocean currents in climate change. The Sub-Mesoscale Ocean Dynamics Experiment (S-MODE) mission will deploy its suite of water- and air-borne instruments to show what’s happening just below the ocean’s surface. The S-MODE team hopes to learn more about small-scale movements of ocean water such as eddies. These whirlpools span abo...
