IIG Seminar - Immunological Mechanisms of Cancer Defense: Reining in Dynamic Cancer Cell and Microenvironment Reciprocity
IIG Seminar The immune system employs two distinct defense strategies against infections: microbe-directed pathogen destruction typified by type 1 immunity, and host-directed pathogen containment exemplified by type 2 immunity in induction of tissue repair. Akin to infectious diseases, cancer progresses with cancer cell acquisition of microorganism-like behavior propagating at the expense of the host. While immunological mechanisms of cancer cell destruction are well defined, whether immune-mediated cancer cell containment can be induced is poorly understood. In this presentation, I will discuss how type 2 immunity can be ...

Improbable Research and the Ig Nobel Prizes
NIH Director's Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series Marc Abrahams founded the annual Ig Nobel Prize ceremony, in 1991. He is editor of the magazine Annals of Improbable Research, and former editor of the Journal of Irreproducible Research. He has written 24 mini-operas (about heart repair, bacterial space exploration, atomic/human romance, species mixing, coffee chemistry, the Atkins Diet, human/sheep cloning, cockroaches, incompetence, and much else). He invents ways to make people curious about things they might otherwise avoid.For more information go tohttps://oir.nih.gov/wals/2019-2020/improbable-research-ig-nobel-prizes...
