Biography

Andrew Wilber has expertise in hematology and immunology. His laboratory is interested in understanding the role of the tumor microenvironment in suppressing anti-tumor immunity. Current efforts are examining deficiencies in natural anti-tumor immunity in patients with advanced kidney cancer. Specifically, his group is studying alterations in natural killer cells within the blood and tumor of these patients. These changes prevent natural killer cells from destroying kidney tumor cells. Prevention of these processes may be an important goal of future tumor therapy.
