Our new paper shows a method to make CAR-T cells effective for prostate cancer with limited side effects.
Could CAR-T cells carrying collagen targeting IL-12 be a safe therapy for #ProstateCancer? A team including @ProstateUK Career Acceleration Fellow @Ko1Sasaki & @BioengIshihara @ImperialBioeng share interesting new results in @natBME. Grab a ☕ and read: doi.org/10.1038/s41551-025-0…

Merry Christmas from the Ishihara lab. Our lab is still two years-old, but grew rapidly. We celebrated our achievements, diversity and team working culture.

I became a researcher because I wanted to solve unmet needs. I truly believe that with this funding, we can make a difference in brain tumors therapies.
We’ve awarded £1.5 million grant to find new ways to treat #glioblastoma at @imperialcollege. Led by Dr Jun Ishihara @BioengIshihara, researchers will harness the power of the immune system to help fight recurrent glioblastoma cells. bit.ly/3LcgX7K

Congratulations, Martina. Great that you will be back to Chicago!
Excited to share that I have accepted a position as Assistant Professor at @UChicago and that my lab will open its doors in October 2023 as part of @UChicagoImmuno. Contact me if you are interested in studying mechanisms of peripheral tolerance with us!

I am thrilled to share this news. Our lab was funded by the Brain tumour charity, with 1.5 million GBP, 5 years. Our ambition is to create drug for the patients who desperately need therapeutic options. @BrainTumourCSO @imperialcollege @ImperialBioeng thebraintumourcharity.org/br…

New Nature communications paper is out!
So excited for our new publication in @NatureComms demonstrating a novel membrane-bound IL-12 engineered regionally-delivered CAR T cell approach to target multi-metastatic solid tumors. Congrats to @heejunlee920505, @JohnPMuradPhD and #pricemanlab #coh nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

I am so proud of Jeff. I have been working with him for 9 years. He is a great researcher, mentor and respectful person. Joining his lab was my best decision in my life.
Replying to @UChicagoPME
@UChicagoPME professor Jeffrey Hubbell has been elected into the @theNASciences for his work in bioengineering and immunotherapy. 👏 Hubbell is the only current @UChicago faculty member to be elected to all three academies - Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine.
