Tumour immunology
From September 2006, a series of articles on tumour immunology will appear in Nature Reviews Immunology. Each article in this series will explore the dynamic interactions between tumour cells and immune cells, the mechanisms by which an immune response to tumours might be generated and maintained, how tumour cells escape detection and destruction by the immune system and how this knowledge can lead to new therapeutic targets and treatments for cancer. We hope that this article series will give you a taste of the diversity of topics that form part of this rapidly moving field.
