Scientists at the University of Washington School of Medicine are winners of the 2023 Gizmodo Science Fair
for their experimental breast cancer vaccine.
In November, the researchers published
data from a Phase I safety trial of their vaccine, which involved 66 women with advanced-stage breast cancer.
The women had undergone treatment that either put their cancer into complete remission or largely contained it, but they remained at high risk of it aggressively reemerging. The volunteers were tracked for a median length of about 10 years.
