“scientists genetically sequenced patient tumors and then searched for unique mutations that the immune system might be able to use to tell cancer cells apart from healthy ones. Then, they built vaccines by training the immune system to recognize targets specific to patient tumors. That required custom manufacturing for each patient, though, and it wasn’t clear how well the approach would work.

“It’s an algorithm as much as it is a therapy,” Healy said.”

Imagine how much this will accelerate with AGI/ASI jet engines attached.
