Thrilled to see our own @MarinaYakou in the #ASMRSpotlight! 🤩 Her research is tackling some big questions in cancer immunology—how patient-intrinsic factors like age, hormones and our microbiome influence antitumor immunity. @TheDohertyInst @TheASMR1
June is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month. Bowel cancer is rising at an alarming rate in young people, highlighting the importance of Dr Marina Yakou’s work, an ECR from The Doherty Institute of Infection and Immunity. #ASMRSpotlight #bowelcancerawareness
