Current Research

Protein Engineering & Expression of Recombinant Immunotherapeutics

Our research efforts in this area are conducted under the Cornell University/ Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research (LICR) Partnership. Currently, we are exploring a number of parallel routes for the expression of therapeutic agents that have promise in the clinic. We are evaluating existing approaches, working to develop novel and improved techniques for protein expression, and constructing rational approaches to scale-up these systems.
