The Cancer Research Institute of West Tennessee (CRIWT) is a renowned research institution dedicated to advancing the understanding and treatment of cancer through innovative laboratory research. With over 48 years of experience, the CRIWT has made significant contributions to the field of immunology, particularly in the discovery and study of Natural Killer Cells (NKCs), which play a crucial role in our body's defense against cancer and viral diseases.
Under the leadership of Dr. Thornthwaite, the CRIWT has expanded its research capabilities and developed state-of-the-art instrumentation, reagents, and clinical procedures. Their focus on maximizing the body's natural immunological defense mechanisms sets them apart from traditional cancer therapeutic research. Additionally, the CRIWT provides counseling and education to cancer patients and their families, offering support and knowledge on topics such as post-treatment concerns, lifestyle changes, and the role of the immune system in fighting cancer.
