“Epigenetic Control of Cancer Immunity”
With Leigh Ellis, PhD
This event was POSTPONED and will be rescheduled at a later date.
Dr. Leigh Ellis, Scientific Director of the Center for Urologic Research Excellence and Associate Professor, Samuel Oschin Comprehensive Cancer Institute at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center
The Ellis laboratory’s focus is the discovery of how a prostate cancer cell controls the expression of genes (epigenetics) to drive metastasis and resistance to current therapies. Their work has demonstrated how the epigenetic regulator, EZH2, controls prostate cell fidelity and evasion of immune detection, and has shown that inhibition of EZH2 resulted in reprogramming both the prostate tumor and its tumor microenvironment to re-sensitize to androgen deprivation therapy and check-point immunotherapy.
