LEVERAGING THE IMMUNE SYSTEM TO FIGHT CANCER

The video discusses a therapeutics company focusing on biological molecules in the bloodstream, particularly antibodies, to fight cancer. It explains how the company uses technology to capture genetic content from B cells, creating a DNA library for analysis. Microfluidics technology is used for single-cell analysis, and software processes complex genetic data to identify potential therapeutics. The video emphasizes the importance of biology in modern innovation and solutions.
