Molecular Pathogenesis: research incorporate the study of host-pathogen interactions at the level of cellular and molecular networks with application to the understanding of virulence factors, host resistance to pathogens, and emerging (and resurgent) infectious disease agents.
A key step in the clinical production of CAR T cells is the expansion of engineered T cells. To generate enough cells for viable adoptive cell therapy, cells must be robustly stimulated, whi...
