Maximilian Koch
Postdoctoral Scholar, Stanford Cancer Institute
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy current research focuses on developing novel cellular immunotherapies for pediatric cancers. This includes identifying suitable MHC-restricted and native antigens that are expressed by malignant cells but ideally absent from healthy tissues. On the receptor side, both CARs and TCRs are being characterized for their specificity, affinity, and functionality. Ultimately, non-viral gene delivery methods will be explored and optimized to enable affordable, precise, and consistent cell products.

Gabriele Kockelkoren
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
BioGabriele has a strong background in both physics and molecular biology and, accordingly, he strives in interdisciplinary environments. After completing a cum laude BSc. and MSc. in Nanobiology at the Technical University of Delft in The Netherlands, Gabriele pursued a PhD at the University of Copenhagen under the supervision of Prof. Dimitrios Stamou. In his PhD, Gabriele studied the nanoscale spatial organization of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) at the plasma membrane of living cells. Importantly, his work reveals heterogeneous spatial patterns of receptor density and activation, that are modulated in a drug-dependent manner. These findings identify GPCR spatial organization as an integral element of their activity and signaling. Currently, Gabriele is a Postdoctoral Fellow in the lab of Prof. Alice Ting developing programmable receptors for molecular sensing and controlling cellular behaviour.
