BEaTS Research Radio's Podcast

Iman Kashif from the University of Ottawa interviewed Dr. Barbara Vanderhyden, a senior scientist in ovarian cancer research and a professor at the University of Ottawa. In this insightful episode, Dr. Vanderhyden discusses her groundbreaking research pertaining to how immune regulator NLRC5 can reshape the tumor microenvironment and increase T-cell reactivity to better recognize and respond to cancer cells. She explains the mechanisms of immune evasion in ovarian cancer and discusses how her work could pave the way for novel therapeutic approaches.
