1/2 Celebrating a double win!✨ Yesterday, at the Lund Stem Cell Center (LSCC) retreat, Ervin Ascic was awarded the Article of the Year Award with our Science paper "In vivo dendritic cell reprogramming for cancer immunotherapy" (www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...)
September 17, 2025 at 1:06 PM
1/3 Call for Authors!
We are currently editing a volume on Cellular Reprogramming for Immunotherapy for the Methods in Molecular Biology series (Springer Nature). This volume will steer the future of the field and is a great way to share your lab’s protocols!
