The Future of Oncology and Immunomodulation

I think we might be actually stepping back from the precision diagnostics of getting a specific name for something in those patients and just saying a better part of valor maybe is at least put them into a bucket of autoimmunity versus infection versus other. So if you categorize the genes that are being turned on in the host there's actually some machine learning work to say that response looks like an autoimmune response or a viral pathogen host response or a bacterial pathogen hostresponse. That might be enough to at least
