Webinar: Reprogramming Human Regulatory T Cells to Quell Autoimmunity and Transplant Rejection

Register HERE Date:                 Tuesday, September 6, 2022 Time:                 1:00 PM Eastern |  10:00 AM Pacific Duration:          1 hour Presentations by:          Leonardo Ferreira, PhD, Medical University of South Carolina Everett Meyer, MD, PhD, Stanford University

 Topics to be discussed:

–  What is a regulatory T cell (Treg)? When were they first discovered? What is a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)?
–  How heterogenous is the Treg compartment? Do different Treg subsets perform different functions? How do tissue-resident Tregs differ from those in the periphery?
–  What are the hurdles in utilizing Tregs? Does engineering Tregs create new opportunities or new challenges?
–  How far along are Tregs in the clinic?
