Title: Decoding Tumor-Draining Lymph Nodes: New Insights into Tumor Immunity and Biomarker Discovery
Chair: Carina Strell
Place: Auditorium 4, BB-building
When: September 25, 2025 at 14.30-15.30
No registration necessary. A student and need the ECTS? Remember to register for CCBIO902 in StudentWeb, before Sept. 1
Maria Ulvmar's team is working to expand the current knowledge about the lymph node (LN) vascular specialization and plasticity and break new grounds for an understanding of tumor-host communication in the pre-metastatic and the metastatic LN. Join us as she explores how changes in tumor-draining lymph nodes shape immune responses and reveal new biomarkers. Discover how this emerging research could transform cancer diagnostics and therapy.
