Biography

My research background has focused on cancer biology and cancer treatment. Currently I am interested in the effects of membrane biophysics on immune activation in the anti-tumor response. I hope to find insight into how cancer cells can evade immune surveillance to improve the effectiveness of immunotherapy treatments.
