Immunology & Cancer

 

Understanding the interaction of cancer and the immune system has been critical to developing novel therapies. Our faculty is dedicated to advancing the understanding and treatment of cancer and immune-related diseases.

 

Our researchers use cutting-edge techniques and technologies to investigate the molecular and cellular mechanisms of cancer development, progression, and metastasis, as well as the interactions between the immune system and tumors.

 

Our research covers a wide range of topics, such as cancer immunotherapy, tumor microenvironment, epigenetics, inflammation, autoimmunity, and infectious diseases. Together, we believe our efforts will yield new ways to treat cancer, benefiting patients currently refractory to other modes of therapy.
