Immunotherapy for cancer is all over the news these days. But what is it? How does it work? What types of cancers respond? Is it safe? Is it different for kids than for adults? Dr. Mackall, a leader in this fast-growing field, will discuss how Stanford physicians and researchers are harnessing the immune system to fight cancer more effectively and with fewer side effects. She’ll talk about the latest treatments, tell us what’s in the pipeline, and discuss the challenges of turning promising discoveries into new therapies.
