Online sources say there are more than 200 types of cancer, each with a distinct signature, different signs and symptoms. Some cause early manifestations, even when the tumor has not grown and spread throughout the body. In other cases, the cancer remains silent until it is too late.

In all cases, cancer patients are looking for the Holy Grail, a cure. And thanks to Dr.Pisters and Dr. Rezvani, that dream could (relatively) soon become a reality.

Below is their talk about MD Anderson and a new frontier in immune cell therapy to treat viruses – and cancer.
