Speakers:
Prof. Likai Tan (The Chinese University of Hong Kong)
Titel: COPD Drives γδ T Cells Differentiation into Tissue-Resident Memory Phenotypes with Tissue-regulatory Features
Dr. Yin Wu (The King’s College)
Titel: γδ T cell exhaustion: it’s a marathon not a sprint
Date & Time: October 6, 2025, 3:30 PM
Likai Tan, a research assistant professor at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, has pioneered the use of systems biology approaches, including single-cell multi-omics, TCR sequencing, and high-dimensional flow cytometry, to study the differentiation, residence, and dynamics of γδ T cells.
Yin Wu, a clinical research fellow and honorary consultant medical oncologist at King’s College London, is investigating the presence and role of γδ T cells within cancers with the aim to translate understanding of fundamental γδ T cell biology to improve clinical outcomes.
