Bio:
Dr. Nir Ben-Chetrit is an Associate Professor of Radiation Biology at Weill Cornell Medical College. He leads research on novel immuno-oncology approaches, including tumor vaccines and reprogramming tumor-associated macrophages. His work integrates spatial transcriptomics and proteomics to study tumor microenvironments, advancing strategies to boost anti-cancer immunity in metastatic breast cancer and beyond.
Seminars:
Omics-Driven Insights into Cell State, Function & Therapeutic Targeting to Decode Myeloid Complexity & Enable High-Resolution Profiling of Diverse Myeloid Populations 1:00 pm
A comprehensive deep-dive led by expert bioinformaticians to better understand what goes on inside the cell. Detect subtle differences in cell states to define and organize myeloid-cell populations, link molecular patterns to functional out comes and pin point novel therapeutic targets. Equip participants with a current understanding of how omics technologies are redefining our view…Read more
