Congratulations to David for being a finalist for the YPIC #proteomics Fund!
We are happy to support his application at the Immunopeptidomics Platform HI-TRON and hope the fund will make this breakthrough project possible in collab with David from @lukasbunse.bsky.social lab at @dkfz.bsky.social
Meet YPIC Student Proteomics Fund finalist David Palmero
Cantón!
David is a biotechnologist by training who specialized in cancer research during his master’s studies and is now pursuing his PhD at DKFZ-German Cancer Research Center.

1/2 Super excited to see this finally out @naturecomms.bsky.social ! We developed an off-the-shelf T cell receptor T cell therapy for patients with glioblastoma from a peptide vaccinated patient. Looking very much forward to its translation within DKTK supported by HI-TRON!

Vaccination in glioblastomas does lead to the emergence of tumour-antigen-specific T cells but T cell dysfunction, poor tumour infiltration and persistence hinder efficient tumour killing. Here author...

Great fun to write this perspective with @lukasbunse.bsky.social @platten-lab.bsky.social @dkfz-iic.bsky.social @dkfz.bsky.social on a highly interesting study by the Bardeesy Lab. This study provides additional mechanistic rationale to combine IDH inhibitors with T cell activating therapies.
