Elaheh Hashemi, PhD

I am a postdoctoral researcher with a passion for understanding the relationship between tumor cells and immune cells in the brain tumor microenvironment. My research is focused on identifying changes in the temporal and spatial immune microenvironment in different types and stages of glioma. I am particularly interested in determining how secreted factors like CXCL14 shape the tumor-associated immune response in T cells. My long-term goal is to contribute to the discovery of new scientific knowledge in basic and translational science, focusing on key biological pathways and their implications in human disease.
