She is an expert on human dendritic cell (DC) subsets, specifically with respect to their isolation, biology, function, and use as vaccine adjuvants in humans. She has been principal investigator for the design and implementation of several clinical trials studying novel experimental immunotherapies for melanoma and other cancers using Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists or dendritic cells as adjuvants. Her lab also investigates DC biology in the tumor micro-environment as it relates to anti-melanoma immunity. Dr. Bhardwaj earned her MD and PhD degrees from New York University School of Medicine and completed her postdoctoral training at The Rockefeller University.<\/p>\n<p>This webinar is part of the Cancer Research Institute&#39;s webinar series, &quot;Cancer Immunotherapy and You,&quot; which are offered free to the public and feature informative updates for patients and caregivers from leaders in cancer immunotherapy, followed by a Q&amp;A.
