Medical Xpress / A new immunotherapy target? How SRC-3 in Tregs may reshape solid-tumor treatment
In 2023, researchers at Baylor College of Medicine led by the late Dr. Bert O'Malley discovered that the steroid receptor coactivator 3 (SRC-3) in immune cells called regulatory T cells (Tregs) plays a decisive role in shaping ...
Tech Xplore / Holographic storage approach packs more data into the same space by encoding three properties of light
Researchers have developed a holographic data storage approach that stores and retrieves information in three dimensions by combining three properties of light—amplitude, phase and polarization. By allowing more data to be ...
