Dr. Jen and Dr. Shane host a celebration for the Day of Immunology with three distinguished guests. First, Lauren Howson from WEHI's Immunology Division delves into the roles of "unconventional" immune cells in human disease, aiming to guide new therapeutic strategies, particularly for inherited primary immunodeficiency (PID). Then, Dr. Alexander Davenport, a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at WEHI, focuses on enhancing T cell killing of tumour cells, targeting novel protein targets for pediatric brain cancer immunotherapies, notably Diffuse Midline Glioma (DMG). Lastly, writer and poet Alicia Sometimes explores dark energy and gravitational waves through art installations and collaborations with scientists, culminating in her book "Stellar Atmospheres" which combines physics, science communication, and personal experiences like her battle with breast cancer.
