Abstract Cellular adaptive immunity is a tireless gatekeeper that protects our bodies from a perilous invasion of pathogenic microorganisms and allergens from the outside, and spread of silent killers, cancer cells, inside us. The cover depicts an ultrasensitive and versatile assay designed to study the structural avidity of individual CD8+ T cells and the overall effectiveness of this branch of our defense system.
