Earlier this month, we published an article about the research on combining cytokines and pyroptosis as a promising cancer therapy conducted by Sara Orehek, Iva Hafner Bratkovič, and their colleagues at the Kemijski Inštitut, including members of the CTGCT. Since then, this research article has gained remarkable traction in the Slovenian media, receiving extensive recognition and coverage.
