The resulting insights, often referred to as the \u201cgrammar\u201d of the tumor microenvironment, can help predict whether a tumor will respond to immunotherapy. When a response is unlikely, these insights can also inform strategies to reprogram the tumor from \u201ccold\u201d to \u201chot,\u201d increasing its susceptibility to treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>GigaTIME is a multimodal AI model that translates pathology slides, the kind routinely used in cancer diagnosis, into virtual mIF images.
