      I agree with Patrisa (and others). You take all the information that makes my brain spin and put it all together. I appreciate all the ways you help us navigate this swarm of information and research.

        I just hit the link for Medscape and it asks for email and password. I joined a couple of years ago and I forgot that it will take an extra step to look at Weber's presentation. They don't send junk mail afterwards!!!Ed

Dr. Sznol's presentation is pretty detailed about Immunotherapy drugs and how they work. The second presentation is by Dr. Postow on IRAE's and is really good!!!
