New discovery furthers our understanding of how critical immune cells are controlled during an infection

A recent publication from Research from the Gerard Lab in Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology looks at how a specific protein, called IFNγ, can coordinate CD8+ T cell responses during a flu infection.

Any type of hormonal contraceptive may increase risk of breast cancer

Women diagnosed with early breast cancer today are much less likely to die from the disease than 20 years ago
