Project

Immunoediting and immune evasion mechanisms in the treated and untreated cancer genome

Tumour-immune interactions during tumour evolution result in immunoediting and immune evasion. The goal of this project is to use large cancer genome databases to identify the underlying genomic alterations, in both the untreated cancer genome and following treatment with immunomodulating agents. Results can be exploited to predict differential responses to cancer immunotherapy.
