个人简介

Dr Stephen Thirdborough has a PhD in Biology awarded by the University of Leicester in 1998 for studies on the impairment of human dendritic cell function by soluble factors in malignant melanoma. He joined Professor Stevenson’s group in 1998 to explore the feasibility of using patient-specific TCR rearrangements as targets for immunotherapy, and together with Professor Tim Elliot, studied the mechanisms by which DNA vaccines prime T-cell responses. More recently, Stephen has been applying systems-level analysis of high dimensional cancer omics data for biomarker discovery and the study of host-tumour interactions.

研究领域

We are using systems approaches to understand how somatic changes in oncogenes and tumour suppressor genes influence interactions between the tumour and host (immune and other types of cells). For instance, we have recently shown that EGFR-driven tumour glycolysis is a major factor contributing to the lack of T-cell infiltration in squamous cell carcinoma, allowing stratification of patients for immunotherapy trials and supporting the need for a distinct set of immunotherapeutic inventions dictated by the metabolic status of the tumour.
