DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday January 25\, Amanda W. Lund (Vilcek Institute of G
 raduate Biomedical Sciences New York University Grossman School of Medicin
 e) will be giving a talk entitled “Investigating the impact of lymphatic t
 ransport from immune surveillance to metastasis” as part of the Emerging T
 opics of Health (EToH) Seminar series\, cohosted by the Departments of Mic
 robiology and Immunology\, Physiology and Human Genetics\, the Goodman Can
 cer Institute (GCI) and the McGill University Research Centre on Complex T
 raits (MRCCT). \n\n \n\nGrad students: Sign up to have lunch with our gues
 t speaker!\n\nThere will be a lunch with Dr Lund for graduate students and
  postdocs. If you would like to have lunch with our guest speaker\, please
  fill out this SURVEY. The lunch will be held from 12h to 1h in Room #530 
 in the Bellini. \n\n \n\nNote: There will be a 5à7 after the talk at Brass
  Doors Pub (2171 Crescent Street) and anyone (students\, postdocs\, and fa
 culty) are welcome to join! \n\n \n\nYou will find attached the poster. He
 re is her abstract:\n\nThe lymphatic vasculature is the critical interface
  between peripheral tissues and secondary lymphoid organs where adaptive i
 mmune responses are initiated. Though the immune response and the lymphati
 c vasculature are anatomically and functionally related\, the contribution
  of these vessels to peripheral tissue and anti-tumor immunity remains und
 erappreciated and unexplored. The Lund Lab tests the hypothesis that the l
 ymphatic vasculature is an active regulator of cutaneous and tumor immunit
 y both serving as the requisite route for immune priming and directly cont
 ributing to multiple mechanisms of immune resolution and tumor immune esca
 pe. By elucidating novel mechanisms of lymphatic vessel-mediated immune co
 ntrol we are working towards the long-term goal of identifying novel targe
 ts and strategies to use the lymphatic vasculature to tune immune function
  to enhance cancer immunotherapy \n\n \n\nThank you on behalf of the organ
 izing committee of the EToH\n
