Object permanence allows infants to interact successfully with objects in the environment. What happens in the human infant brain when objects move in and out of sight? This study used high-density electroencephalography (hdEEG) to record induced oscillatory brain activities in 29 locomotor infants before, during, and after occlusion of a moving object traveling at different speeds. Temporal spectral evolution (TSE) showed that before and after the occlusion event, event-related synchronized (ERS) brain activity was observed, whereas event-related desynchronized (ERD) activity was detected when the car was hidden behind the occluder.

Immunotherapy has emerged as a pioneering therapeutic modality, particularly within the realm of oncology, where Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy has manifested significant efficacy in the treatment of hematological malignancies. Nonetheless, the extension of immunotherapy to solid tumors poses a considerable challenge. This challenge is largely attributed to the intrinsic "cold" characteristics of certain tumors, which are defined by scant T-cell infiltration and a diminished immune response.

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in the world. Since the appearance of molecular medicine, the perspective of breast cancer treatment has changed, making it more successful in comparison with the treatment during previous years. Numerous ongoing trials are exploring the capacity of immunotherapy, mainly in immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), in conjunction with conventional therapies or with antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs).

Macrophage engineering with chimeric antigen receptor is a promising technique first applied to the treatment of tumours and recently suggested as a possible immunotherapeutic route against the COVID-19 disease. Four immunotherapies based on engineered macrophages have been tested revealing promising, with one of them acting without increasing the cytokines level. We present a mathematical model aimed at the evaluation of both the SARS-CoV-2 virions dynamics and the cytokines production induced, while such newly developed constructs interact with the immune system once administered.
