Resilience and the Importance of Basic Science

Resilience and the Importance of Basic Science

What if we could supercharge our bodies to fight disease?

When we get a cold, or a cut on our hand, we will heal. This concept of resilience is being studied and researched at Duke, and basic science research may hold many of the keys to unlocking the power of the human body to resist infection and disease.
