Research Focus
Research in the Yin lab focuses on employing a biomaterials-centric approach to elucidate the key mechanisms for potentiating or diversifying the immune responses, and in parallel, to precisely modulate the immune system and create new immunotherapies against cancer and infectious diseases. The lab leverages cutting-edge technologies in synthetic chemistry, materials science, nanotechnology, systems immunology and organoid models to advance developments in cancer immunotherapy and anti-viral vaccines. Yin's ultimate goal is to translate these new technologies and therapies for clinical applications.
