| Description | "Dr. Greenberg was a founding member of the University of Washington (UW) Department of Immunology and of the Fred Hutch Program in Immunology, helping guide their coordination to develop productive training and research environments for investigators involved in basic immunology and translational cancer immunology research. Internationally recognized as a leader in the cancer immunology field, he has trained more than 30 investigators who have gone on to develop independent research careers, including many who have also become leaders in immunology fields. His laboratory performed some of the earliest studies focused on how immune T cells can recognize and eliminate malignant cells in the context of progressing tumors. First using small animal models, Dr. Greenberg’s lab has developed technologies to isolate and expand functional, target (antigen)-specific T cells to numbers large enough to be effective when given to patients as “adoptive” immune-boosting therapy." |
