Tumor Immunology and Immunotherapy

Tumor Immunology and Immunotherapy is a rapidly growing field in cancer research, focusing on harnessing the body's immune system to fight cancer. The idea behind tumor immunotherapy is to enhance the ability of the immune system to recognize and target cancer cells, ultimately leading to more effective treatments. This can be achieved through a variety of methods, such as stimulating the immune system to attack cancer cells directly, using immunomodulatory drugs to enhance immune responses, or engineering immune cells to better target cancer cells. The success of immunotherapy has led to significant advancements in the field of cancer treatment, and it is widely recognized as a cornerstone of modern oncology. With ongoing research, we are poised to make more breakthrough discoveries that will benefit even more patients. CRTOH, with its focus on multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research, is well-positioned to play a key role in these exciting developments in the field of cancer research.
