Dogs may hold key to treating cancer in humans Penn In the News CBS News Dogs may hold key to treating cancer in humans A study by Nicola Mason of the School of Veterinary Medicine and colleagues found that an experimental immunotherapy treatment using genetically modified listeria could extend the life expectancy of dogs with cancer. Universal vaccine to combat flu could be rolled out in the next couple of years Penn In the News Wales Online Universal vaccine to combat flu could be rolled out in the next couple of years Researchers at the Perelman School of Medicine have developed a universal flu vaccine that could be ready for use in just a few winters. Universal flu vaccine could counter future pandemic Penn In the News BBC News Universal flu vaccine could counter future pandemic Researchers at the Perelman School of Medicine have found a flu vaccine that could protect against any future pandemic strains, with a quote from Scott Hensley. Universal flu vaccine using RNA technology successfully tested in mice Penn In the News El Pais Universal flu vaccine using RNA technology successfully tested in mice Researchers from the Perelman School of Medicine are using messenger RNA technology to target all subtypes of influenza with a new vaccine candidate. Recreating the adrenal gland in a petri dish The structure and function of adrenal gland ‘organoids’ grown in a petri dish at the School of Veterinary Medicine closely replicated that of the human adrenal gland, according to a new study.
