The Rotisserie-Inspired Device That Could Revolutionize Cancer Surgery
The Raman Rotisserie creates a 3D topographical map of a tumor’s surface, which surgeons can examine to detect if cancerous cells have been fully remo
Electric Pulses Induce Lung Cancer Immune Response

The thymus may well involute during life but it's certainly not functionally redundant!
In its absence...
- ⬆️ all cause mortality
- ⬆️ cancer risk
- ⬆️ risk of autoimmune disease
