Qwen3-0.6B

tumor and cancer words

A neuron in layer 6 of Qwen3-0.6B. Its strongest snippets are fairly consistent: several of them peak on the same token. It is featured, so it has steering outputs.

What this neuron does

This neuron mostly fires on medical words, especially tumor and cancer, as in radiation treatment for tumors. The pattern is fairly clear in the examples, but turning the neuron up produced text that had nothing to do with medicine.

Written by Claude from this neuron's activations and steering outputs. Confidence: medium. Think it is wrong? Flag it (opens a prefilled issue on GitHub).

    . Low doses of CpG injected into a tumor induce the expression of OX40 on CD4+ T cells in the microenvironment in mouse or human tumors. An agonistic anti-OX40 antibody can then trigger a T cell
