Speaker Bio: Dr Rebecca Lee is a senior lecturer in medical oncology at The University of Manchester, The Christie NHS Foundation Trust and a Wellcome early career fellow. Her PhD examined precision medicine approaches to melanoma treatment supervised by Professor Richard Marais and Professor Paul Lorigan. In pre-clinical work, she is examining how local and systemic immune tolerance is induced through interaction between melanoma and cells within the liver microenvironment initially as a post-doc fellow in the laboratories of Prof Erik Sahai and Prof Mala Maini. She also has developed a number of translational clinical trials to improve outcomes for patients with melanoma. She has now opened her own laboratory at The University of Manchester.
