Reducing stress on T cells improves their ability to fight cancer: Study
Updated : 5 months, 1 week ago IST
Even for killer T cells, which are specialised immune cells, searching for and eliminating cancer cells around the clock can be challenging. Scientists can produce stronger cancer-killing cells if they understand why killer T cells become exhausted.

Study discovers how lack of sleep might affect brain
Updated : 5 months, 1 week ago IST
Sleep deprivation not only makes you feel terrible, but research has shown that it also affects your brain. Long-term sleep deprivation increases the risk of acquiring neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's. Researchers are attempting to determine how a lack of sleep causes this damage.
