Decoding immune–tumor interactions with functional genomics

Discover how coculture models and CRISPR tools reveal new insights into tumour microenvironments.

Understanding how immune cells interact with tumors is key to advancing cancer treatment. By combining genome-wide perturbations through gene editing tools like CRISPR with cancer cell cocultures, functional genomics reveals mechanisms of immune infiltration, new therapeutic targets, and strategies for more effective treatment.

In this webinar, Agnieszka Jozwik and Mehwish Younas will present how they apply CRISPR screening in immuno-oncology to accelerate the development of next-generation cancer treatments.

Topics to be covered:

  • Best practices in designing arrayed CRISPR screens
  • Principles of integrating complex cell models with CRISPR editing
  • Application of CRISPR in target discovery for immuno-oncology



Thursday, October 23rd, 2025 | 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM Eastern Time
This webinar will be available to view live and on demand.
