the business of car manufacturing is destroying the environment.""3d printing of metal radically changes that.
According to Czinger, 3d printing transforms everything by changing the way the structural components of cars are fabricated.
Currently cars are pieced together on long assembly lines inside large factories that use massive amounts of energy.
Even the most fuel efficient car has a large carbon footprint before ever leaving the plant. Czinger and his team's approach was to take the large plant out of the equation.
"We focused a lot on the aesthetics of this car because it is very important to capture the people's imaginations,
The core enabling technology, the ability to print out car components that can be assembled easily,

Dangers of CAR T cell Therapy CAR-equipped T cells have proven to be remarkably successful in the treatment of various forms of chemotherapy-resistant leukemia

and colleagues does more than merely switch CAR T cells between nand ffstates. It can also act like a rheostat:
These combined control capabilities could be employed to manage the various side effects of CAR T therapy.
For CAR T cell treatments, T cells are removed from a patient blood, genetically engineered to carry CARS that target the patient tumor,
then reinserted into the bloodstream to exert their effects. Once inside the body, in addition to attacking tumors directly, CAR T cells, like all T cells, release signaling molecules called cytokines, some
of which recruit additional T cells to fight the tumor. Sometimes normal cells express small amounts of a cancer-associated protein targeted by a CAR T cell.
Because CAR T cells placed in the bloodstream pass immediately through the heart and lungs, these tissues can be damaged before the CAR T cells reach their intended target elsewhere in the body.
The control offered by the Lim laboratory new cells would allow physicians to leave CAR T cells inactivated until the heart
and lungs are less vulnerable to these irst passside effects. Even when CAR T cells attack only their correct target cancer cells,
side effects can still occur. In tumor lysis syndrome, the body is overwhelmed by toxic substances released when many tumor cells die in rapid succession.
Another side effect, known as a ytokine storm is a life-threatening vicious cycle in which released cytokines summon numerous T cells to the tumor,
but he believes that the research provides the foundation for practical remote control of CAR T cells on the near horizon.
In addition to drug control of CAR T nswitches, members of his laboratory are exploring other techniques to accomplish this goal,
such as controlling CAR T cell activation with light. While successful against blood cancers such as leukemia, CAR T cells have shown so far less efficacy against solid tumors that effect the colon, breast, prostrate, brain and other tissues.
The remote control strategy developed by Lim group may permit researchers to develop more powerful versions of CAR T cells that could attack these solid tumors,
while still keeping side effects in check. Members of the Lim laboratory are also working to reduce side effects by introducing multiple CARS into T cells
so that the cells will respond to multiple characteristics that are distinctive to an individual patient tumor,
