A strong understanding of how the body processes sugar is crucial in designing one-of-a-kind cancer treatments that harness the immune system to fight the disease, says University of Victoria immunologist Julian Lum, the recipient of a $1.08 million research grant.
The focus of the research is to enhance CAR T-therapy so that it may one day assist doctors in providing patients with treatment options based on their own diets and genetic makeup.
The Copyright & Scholarly Communication, UVic Libraries team would like to congratulate Dr. Lum on this milestone. To learn more about Lum’s research please visit the University of Victoria’s institutional repository, UVicSpace.
