Team

We are a diverse group – molecular biologists, MDs, PharmDs, tumor immunologists, stem cell biologists and computational scientists – at all career stages. We architect strategies to dissect and manipulate immune cell identity.

Spin-Offs

Asgard Therapeutics

An important hallmark of cancer is the ability to evade the immune system. Asgard Therapeutics has the goal to establish dendritic cell reprogramming as an entirely new approach to unleash the immune system against cancer.

Blood Reprogramming Technologies

Blood Reprogramming Technologies is a biotechnology start-up focused on the use of direct cell reprogramming to generate innovative solutions for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and blood regeneration.
