Four times a year, the Science Translational Medicine editors select recently published articles across the Science family of journals and highlight interesting translational ties. These short write-ups identify common links between disparate diseases; technologies and research approaches that could prove complementary; and biomedical insights that may inform therapies or treatments. This quarter’s articles cover flexible biosensors, SARS-CoV-2 transmission from a genomics perspective, advances in CAR T cell engineering, the intestinal microbiome, the host immune response to SARS-CoV-2, and strategies for treating infectious diseases.
