Your immune system fights battles every day, most of which you never notice. But what if we could understand them better & change the outcome?
#Neuroimmunology26 is where the brain and immune system are in constant conversation.
Now you can listen, be there, 19-20 Nov, Antwerp: vibbio.tech/4mg5iGk
Even though they may have originated as part of the host defense. In the context of cancer, #macrophages mostly adapt tumor supportive roles, especially in advanced #cancer.
