Inside the Lab: Bright Minds, Bold Science

Behind every innovation in cancer therapy, there’s a team of researchers asking bold questions — and building the tools to answer them.

In this series, we introduce the scientists behind the SCALPEL project — a collaborative effort harnessing the power of photomedicine, immunology, synthetic chemistry, porphyrin chemistry and protein engineering to revolutionize how we treat cancer. Each researcher brings a unique perspective to a shared mission: to design therapies that target cancer more precisely and awaken the immune system in ways current treatments can’t. Get to know the people advancing the science — and learn what drives their curiosity, collaboration and commitment to making a difference.
