Immunotherapy often fails b/c tumors “turn off” the immune system. #PhF26 awardee Dr. Anastasia Varanko @WilsonLabVU @VanderbiltU is engineering a targeted therapy that reprograms suppressive immune cells in tumors to instead attack #cancer. @AVaranko121

The CDMRP supports a wide array of medical research initiatives. Congress' proposal to fund only 12 of the existing 35 CDMRP programs means the Kidney Cancer Research Program receives $0.00 this fiscal year. Patients like me rely on research to keep us alive. Stop the madness.
