UVic Café Scientifique | The Genetic Chef - Engineering Immunity Through Diet and DNA

Come learn about the latest in cancer research! We’ll explore the relationship between our immune system and what we eat, and discover how nutrition can power our body’s defenses against cancer. We’ll also share some of the innovative approaches that are being used to genetically engineer immune cells to target and destroy cancer cells.
