Award for developing a molecular toolbox to control programmed cell death in animals using temperature stimuli, with applications in cancer immunotherapy.
Description
The project aims to develop a molecular toolbox for non-invasive control of cell death using temperature stimuli. The work involves molecular engineering, live cell imaging, and custom devices for feedback-controlled temperature regulation. Success will impact fundamental discovery and therapeutic translation, including targeted cancer immunotherapy.
