Natalia Neparidze

USA

Dr. Neparidze serves as an Associate Professor and the leader of Yale Myeloma Research team. She has developed multiple research projects in myeloma, including a number of investigator-initiated therapeutic clinical trials. She serves as a PI and co-PI on multiple therapeutic clinical trials and leads several clinical outcomes studies in patients with myeloma. Her ongoing research directions include use of advanced imaging and evaluating tumor heterogeneity to enhance precision medicine approaches for myeloma, novel combination immunotherapy strategies and MRD-driven therapies in myeloma, as well as studying biology and clinical outcomes of monoclonal gammopathies in association with metabolic, viral and other co-morbidities, investigating mechanisms of tumor progression and resistance in myeloma.

Shunfu Hu

Dr. Shunfu Hu is a Professor of Geography and Geograohic Information Sciences, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, USA. He has recently worked on public health data sets for the purpose of visualizing the spatiotemporal patterns of the morality rates of many diseases, including cancer.

Thomas Boldicke

Germany

Associate Professor Thomas Böldicke received his PhD 1982 at the Max-Planck-Institut of Molecular Genetics, Berlin. He started his carrier as post doc at the German Research Centre for Biotechnology (GBF, Braunschweig, Germany) in the Department of Genetics and Cell Biology by John Collins. Now he is senior scientist at the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI, former GBF) and project leader intrabodies. He developed recombinant antibodies against tumour antigens, particularly against tumour angiogenesis, rhabdyomyosarcom and recently against TLR2 and TLR9 in pancreatic cancer. He edited two books: “Protein Targeting Compounds” with Springer (2016) and “Antibody Engineering” with IntechOpen (2017). He has published 35 manuscripts. Over 10 years he gave lectures at the Technical University in Braunschweig about immunology, cancer development and immunotherapies. He is in the editorial board of the journal Antibodies as academic editor, Frontiers in Immunology and Frontiers in Oncology.

Anne-Catherine Prats

France

Anne-Catherine PRATS has international reputation in the field of RNA and translational control, and received several scientific prizes. She has focused on the role of mRNA IRESs, non-coding RNAs and RNA-binding proteins in the control of gene expression in stress conditions. She has studied the impact of these molecular mechanism in cancer development as well as in cardiovascular diseases. ACP is also an expert in vectorology and gene therapy and is presently focusing on lymphedema gene therapy in the THERALYMPH European consortium.
