3/9 What is your research focus area?
My team’s research focuses are on 1) decoding 🧠 brain metastasis and the brain immune microenvironment, 2) enhancing responses to targeted- and immuno-therapies, and 3) developing immunoprevention strategies of breast cancer by vaccines and nutrient supplements.
