Research Interests

  • My current research interest is in tumor immunology in using immune system for better diagnosis and targeted personalized treatment for cancer. I am currently interested in identifying immune reactive TAA and their autoantibodies. Activation of the immune system against the malignant cells is also interesting research field. I thrive in bringing the knowledge of immune system to the practice and guide the therapies.
