  • Cancer-Immune Microenvironment

    Focusing on tumor – immune cell interactions in (triple negative) breast cancer and the role of tumor-associated cancer testis antigens in anti-tumor immunity.

  • Exploitation of immune cells as therapeutic agents to target and eradicate cancer

    Focusing on cancer immunology and immunotherapy and the use of different immunotherapeutic modalities for treating cancer.
