On July 18 in the journal Nature BME, MBI researchers published a study showing that an experimental mRNA vaccine boosted tumor-fighting effects of immunotherapy in mice, bringing researchers one step closer to their goal of developing a universal vaccine to “wake up” the immune system against cancer.
