Research team from Wesley Center for Immunotherapy at UH Seidman Cancer Center Awarded Top Scoring Abstract Award at the 2025 International Society for Cell and Gene Therapy Annual Meeting

David Wald, MD, PhD and colleagues abstract was selected based on their work to develop a less than one day CAR T-cell Therapy Manufacturing Process

A study led by the Hospital del Mar Research Institute has established the importance of immunoglobulin A, an antibody that is part of the immune system, in generating a response to pneumonia vaccines.

Researchers have found that the absence of this antibody leads to an overgrowth of gut microbiota, triggering an excessive and sustained immune system response, which ultimately becomes exhausted and fails to respond effectively to vaccines.

The study, published in Science Advances, opens the door to exploring the possibility of early immunoglobulin therapy administration to prevent this process and reduce the risk of potentially dangerous infections, even in at-risk individuals without a diagnosed immunodeficiency

Professor JianQiao Zhou’s team at Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, has developed a latent diffusion model named CoLDiT. This model generates high-quality breast ultrasound images across different BI-RADS categories to overcome medical data sharing barriers. The study, titled “Synthetic Breast Ultrasound Images: A Study to Overcome Medical Data Sharing Barriers,” was published in the journal Research (DOI: 10.34133/research.0532).

New research from Edith Cowan University (ECU) has confirmed that erectile dysfunction in patients living with prostate cancer could be significantly improved through regular exercise.

Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis are discovering the electrochemical properties of biomolecular condensates which could help in development of cancer or ALS treatments
