Part of the UCL Institute of Immunity and Transplantation Seminar Series.
Speaker: Dr Alan G. Ramsay, Senior Lecturer/PI in Lymphoma Biology, King’s College London
Dr Ramsay leads a research group focussing on translational research in cancer immunology. His research in the chronic lymphocytic leukaemia and lymphoma field has characterised novel tumour cell-induced T-cell immune evasion mechanisms and translated bench science to clinical trials with immunotherapy.
This work includes pre-clinical definition of CLL and lymphoma tumour cells co-opting multiple immune checkpoint molecules to suppress T-cell lytic immune synapse function ('adaptive immune resistance').
The lecture is being hosted by Professor Ron Chakraverty.
