About the Presenter

Dr. Caulin’s lab investigates biological mechanisms involved in head and neck cancer. His team is interested in studying how mutations that accumulate in tumor epithelial cells contribute to cancer development, modulate the immune microenvironment of the tumors, and promote resistance to therapy, including immunotherapies. They generate mouse models tailored to study these processes, and use these mice to conduct relevant preclinical studies and to identify mechanisms of resistance to therapy. And they perform cross-species analyses of the tumors generated in these mice and human head and neck cancers to identify new cancer drivers and to refine therapeutic strategies.
