Lensless fluorescence detection system provides highly sensitive water quality assessment

Researchers have shown that a fluorescence detection system that doesn't contain any lenses can provide highly sensitive detection of deadly microorganisms in drinking water. With further development, the new approach could provide a low-cost and easy-to-use way to monitor water quality in resource-limited settings such as developing countries or areas affected by disasters. It could also be useful when water safety results are needed quickly, such as for swimming events, a concern highlighted during the Paris Olympics.

Discovery of progenitor exhausted T cells offers hope for cancer patients

Tumor immunotherapy leverages the body's immune system to target and eradicate cancer cells, offering a crucial treatment for patients unresponsive to surgery or conventional therapies. Despite its potential, the effectiveness of immunotherapy is often hindered by T cell exhaustion within the tumor microenvironment, leading to diminished immune response and tumor progression. Based on these challenges, exploring the role of progenitor exhausted T cells (Tpex) in overcoming immune resistance is essential for advancing immunotherapeutic strategies and improving clinical outcomes.
