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

Tuesday, September 6, 2022 Presentations by: Leonardo Ferreira, PhD, Medical University of South Carolina Everett Meyer, MD, PhD, Stanford University Topics 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?
