Cancer immunotherapies with antibodies blocking immune checkpoint molecules are clinically active across multiple cancer entities and have markedly improved cancer treatment. Yet, response rates are still limited, and tumour progression commonly occurs. Soluble and cell-bound factors in the tumour microenvironment negatively affect cancer immunity.

- Defects in electronic devices are typically seen as negative, but this study shows they can be useful in new computing methods, especially in low-power and noise-resilient systems.
- The research focuses on using defects in two-dimensional semiconductors to improve a stochastic inference engine, which helps in making more accurate predictions even with noisy data.
- By exploring the behavior of point defects in WSe FETs, the study demonstrates that these defects can enhance the performance of neuromorphic computing systems in medical image analysis compared to traditional encoders.

Article Synopsis
- Cinemeducation, a method that uses film to enhance learning, showed potential for improving students' humanistic skills and engagement, particularly in the context of rare diseases like inborn errors of metabolism.
- A study involving 100 first-year MBBS students used film clips from "Lorenzo's Oil" and "Extraordinary Measures" to teach about lipid metabolism and lysosomal storage disease, respectively.
- Results indicated that while academic performance improved with "Extraordinary Measures," no similar benefit was observed with "Lorenzo's Oil," although both students and instructors expressed satisfaction with the cinemeducation approach.
Article Synopsis
- The semiconductor industry is shifting to the 'More Moore' era, focusing on 3D integration to overcome the limitations of traditional 2D scaling in circuit design.
- Innovations like monolithic 3D integration (M3D) offer potential improvements, but face challenges such as thermal processing issues that may impact performance.
- Recent advancements include integrating two-dimensional materials, specifically WSe FETs, to achieve dense connections and implement vertical logic gates, showcasing progress in M3D integration for better circuit efficiency.
