Physicians and leaders from the University of Pennsylvania's Perelman School of Medicine cut the ribbon on the Novartis-Penn Center for Advanced Cellular Therapeutics.
The center will focus on personalized cellular therapies for cancer, which enables a patient's own immune cells to be reprogrammed outside of their body, and re-infused to destroy their tumors.
