This animation created by Nature Reviews Cancer and Nature Reviews Immunology illustrates how tumor cells are sensed and destroyed by cells of the immune system and how tumors can evolve to evade immune-mediated elimination.

While the shift to 3D cell culture has been under way for the last decade, it is still evolving rapidly to meet the ever growing and dynamic pharmaceutical demand.
Here we provide tips which we deem essential for anyone carrying out 3D cell culture.

Radiotherapy plays a crucial part in treating lots of different cancers. And new technology is making it more precise and reducing side effects. It works by firing x-rays or other intense bundles of energy at cancer cells, damaging their DNA. If a cancer cell can't repair its damaged DNA, it dies.

Traditionally, cancer treatment has revolved around chemotherapy, radiation and surgery. But thanks to groundbreaking immune checkpoint blockade research led by Jim Allison, Ph.D., we have a new way to treat cancer: immunotherapy. Rather than treating the cancer directly, immunotherapy trains the immune system to attack cancer.
