When our cells are infected with viruses, they give off warning signals that stimulate the immune system into fight mode. 🧬🦠🥷💪What if you could make cancer cells pretend to be viruses and release similar signals? New research from @UTAustin suggests this is possible — and that the immune system could therefore be enlisted to fight tumors alongside other therapies. The research stems from longstanding research collaborations with @UTMDAnderson.
UT Austin@UTAustin

UT Austin researchers may have found a new way to turn the immune system against cancer. A chemotherapy therapy option can make cancer cells mimic a viral infection, prompting the body to attack. The discovery could potentially reduce the need for high-dose chemotherapy treatments. Learn more about the discovery here - utex.as/4brIuOY

What if your jacket charged your phone as you walked? 👟📱🧥What if an astronaut's space suit could power wearable sensors without a battery pack? Researchers at @UTDallas are refining "twistrons" — microscopic yarns that generate electricity when stretched — to get us there. “We can envision next‑generation wearable fabrics capable of continuously generating electricity from everyday movement to power phones, watches, tablets, laptops and other portable electronics,” says UTD professor Dr. Mengmeng Zhang.

Materials like granite and limestone that make up @UTAustin's iconic tower and Main Building have been part of Texas history for millions of years. 💎Whether during the time of the dinosaurs or less than 200 years ago on the banks of the Colorado River, the legacy of the Tower is intertwined with the natural and geological history of Texas.
