A team led by UT Southwestern researchers has identified a key gene necessary for cells to consume and destroy viruses. The findings, reported online today in Nature, could lead to ways to manipulate this process to improve the immune system’s ability to combat viral infections, such as those fueling the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

UT Southwestern scientists have developed a new method to study the molecular characteristics of T cells, critical immune cells that recognize and attack invaders in the body such as viruses, bacteria, and cancer.

Today, the North Texas FWC Organizing Committee announced that UT Southwestern Medical Center has been named an Official World Cup 2026™ Dallas Host City Supporter, joining a select group of leading organizations welcoming the world’s largest sporting event to North Texas.
