Lab-on-a-chip platform shows how immune cells attack cancer cells (opens in new tab)

Immunotherapies are a promising approach in the fight against cancer. Researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have developed a lab-on-a-chip system called CellTrap. It makes it possible to observe the interactions between immune cells and cancer cells at the single-cell level. The method is intended to reveal fundamental processes in cancer immunology and answer key questions. The technology is described in the journal RSC Advances.
