The focus of my PhD project is using immunotherapy as a treatment for skin cancer. Cancer cells are specialized in evading the defense mechanisms of the body. Our vision is that laser therapy and immune-stimulating drugs can activate the body’s immune cells to fight skin cancer. We want to develop new cancer models that can improve our understanding of skin cancer.
