MSK Study Is the First to Link Microbiota to Dynamics of the Human Immune System
MSK researchers have shown for the first time that the concentration of different types of immune cells in the blood changes in relation to the presence of different bacterial strains in the gut.
At Work: Computational Biologist Joao Xavier
Computational biologist Joao Xavier combines computer models and laboratory experimentation to understand how cells interact.
Turning to Bacteria for Clues
Several Memorial Sloan Kettering investigators are focused on the study of bacteria, which can teach us much about human health, and about cancer in particular.
