T cells don’t act alone. The immune system’s response to cancer depends on multicellular “hubs” — coordinated networks of immune and non-immune cells. Karin Pelka 🦋 @pelkalab.bsky.social (Gladstone Institutes) has been awarded the 2025 AAAS Wachtel Award for uncovering these hubs, and revealing why some tumors
