Unveiling the microenvironment of gastric cancer using multiplex immunohistochemistry

In this presentation, Dr Ying will describe the successful application of multiplex immunohistochemistry technique in both mouse and human tissues, focusing on its use in unveiling the microenvironment of gastric MALT lymphoma and gastric cancer.

Dr Le (Christy) Ying is a postdoctoral researcher at the Centre for Innate Immunity and Infectious Diseases, Hudson Institute of Medical Research, and the Department of Molecular and Translational Science, Monash University. Her main research interests include the tumour microenvironment, cancer immunology, and the key elements involved in interferon expression in innate immunity.

Dr. Ying completed her Ph.D. at Zhejiang University, China, in 2018. During her Ph.D., she visited Hudson Institute as a research student to study the tumour microenvironment in various cancers using multiplex immunohistochemistry. She then conducted postdoctoral training under the supervision of Professor Richard Ferrero at the Hudson Institute, where she studied the role of NLRC5 in Helicobacter-induced gastric MALT lymphoma. Since 2020, she has been working in Professor Paul Hertzog’ group, focusing on studying the regulatory elements of interferon expression in innate immunity.

This event is online and free.
