Dr Doreen Lau
Lecturer in Inflammation, Ageing and Cancer Biology

Research area(s)

Cancer immunology, immunotherapy, biomarkers, imaging science, biomedical engineering

Research Interests

The research focus of Dr Lau's group is immuno-oncology imaging and experimental medicine. Various state-of-the-art platforms for immune cell tracking and whole-body imaging, preclinical models, immuno-profiling and multi-omics are employed to understand the biological mechanisms involved in anti-tumour immunity and immune-related adverse events. The aim is to translate these methods and findings into clinical practice in the future for treatment stratification of patients, immunotherapy monitoring and to facilitate drug delivery, screening and target validation of novel immunotherapeutics during the early discovery phase. These have important implications for examining a wide range of chronic inflammation and ageing-related disorders such as cancer, infection and autoimmune diseases.
