Sensing Cancer
How can doctors more quickly and effectively determine whether a new treatment is working for a cancer patient or not? This video traces the work of the Cima lab at the KI to overcome this problem with a tiny implantable sensor. The video currently appears in the interactive exhibits of the KI Public Galleries.
