✨✨hot off the press from the #loilab. We show here that pregnancy & breastfeeding is associated with increased T cells in the normal breast and protection against #tnbc #breastcancer moving the role of immunity from treatment to prevention. 👏👏Thanks to @FAndreMD @DrChoueiri @MyriamChalabi for the opportunity to present #ESMO25 @OncoAlert @myESMO @PeterMacRes @PeterMacCC @UniMelb thanks to our funders @BCRFcure @TheMarkFdn @NBCFAus @Nature Article is here: nature.com/articles/s4158…

Congratulations Prof Laura Mackay who has secured a prestigious @CancerResearch Institute (USA) grant to advance research into novel immunotherapy targets for breast cancer. The @LMackayLab is leading the way in tissue-resident memory (TRM) cell research and how these cells can be boosted as a protective mechanism against cancer tumours. @UniMelbMDHS @TheRMH

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
The Australian Society for Medical Research (ASMR)@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
