Job type: Full-Time
The Immunology department at MD Anderson Cancer Center seeks to determine the fundamental cellular and molecular mechanisms of a wide range of processes by which the body recognizes and eliminates pathogens and uses these findings to unleash the patient's immune system against previously treatment-resistant cancers. Treating the immune system rather than the cancer itself, the therapeutics developed apply to many cancers. The role of immunological and epigenetic pathways in resistance and response to immune checkpoint therapy.
