Studies the relationship between immune cells and cancer, aiming to uncover immune system shortcomings and develop improved anti-cancer therapeutics.

My goal is to better understand the complex relationship between cancer cells and immune cells. In most instances of cancer the immune system ultimately falls short and is unable to effectively combat the cancer cells. Through numerous laboratory techniques I hope to better understand these short comings to inform the development of novel or improved anti-cancer therapeutics.
