A bit late sharing but excited to see my PhD work out in @NatureComms! Huge shoutout to all of my coauthors and my PhD advisor for helping get this across the finish line. Not much has changed since the preprint so I’ll link to that tweetorial below nature.com/articles/s4146…

Palmeri et al. fused an agonistic anti-4-1BB Ab and the collagen-binding domain of LAIR1 (ɑ4-1BB-LAIR). However, treating mouse tumor models with ɑ4-1BB-LAIR i.t. plus an Ab specific for tumor-expressed antigen [...] bit.ly/4ackehO @josephrpalmeri @TheWittrupLab

Kicking off 2024 by sharing a preprint of my PhD work! We report an engineered cytokine therapy that elicits some of the most profound anti-tumor immunity we have seen in our labs' preclinical work. Preprint and walk-through below:

Curious what we’ve been up to recently? Check out our posters at #SITC23 today to learn about collagen anchored cytokine therapy in canines (1094) and how Tregs constrain responses to collagen anchored anti-4-1BB agonist antibody therapy (1224)!

Excited to share that the second paper from my post-doc is out! This was a very fun 4-way collaboration between the @stefanispranger, White, and @TheWittrupLab labs at @MIT and the Garcia lab at @Stanford! @kochinstitute @MITBiology @sitcancerECS insight.jci.org/articles/view/…

Successfully defended my PhD in chemical engineering from @MIT last week. Wouldn’t have made it through this journey without the endless support of my colleagues in @TheWittrupLab and all of my friends and family. Excited for the next adventure!

Check out our latest work on the role Tregs play in limiting responses to local anti-4-1BB therapy. Also if you’re looking to hire post docs to study T cell biology/dysfunction Joseph is graduating soon and looking for positions!!

Huge congrats to Dr. Anthony Tabet on a phenomenal PhD defense today. Anthony was co-advised by the @AnikeevaLab and leveraged the unique skill sets of both labs to push the boundaries of cancer neuroimmunology. Excited to see what you accomplish next!
