An open development of a custom cancer vaccine? I had no idea this was a thing.

This better be the future! I love it.

I'm much rather see them repair damaged DNA in cancer cells to cure it.

Ok so digging into this: "We expect most projects to cost around $300,000 (USD) and take 8-10 weeks". That's not quite democratized, but a first-world rush could well happen. I wonder how much costs can be brought down by automation.

Super cool, I’m more curious how this is manufactured. Would love to learn more about that

He was diagnosed with stage IV pancreatic cancer in January 2025 and he is still alive? Does that mean the vaccine worked? I thought that was a 3-6 month prognosis kind of deal. I do hope it works out.

i don't understand, have they administered their vaccine to him already? The last treatment update was from over a year ago, what has happened since then? The whole thing seems a little disconnected.
