Geometry is key to T-cell triggering: Engineers discover geometric underpinnings of T-cell stimulation through precise engineering of T-cell receptor geometry, building a 3-D nanofabricated biomimetic surface that simulates the key components of an antigen-presenting cell
T cells protect the body from foreign substances (known as antigens) and are an essential component of the body’s immune
