Overview
Background
Dr. Pablo Cañete was awarded a PhD in Immunology in 2019 under Prof. Carola Vinuesa’s supervision at the John Curtin School of Medical Research (JCSMR), The Australian National University (ANU). During this time he characterised a novel human T cell subset important for modulating antibodies associated with allergic responses. His doctoral research has been recognised by several awards, including the prestigious Dewar Milne prize for immunology, awarded to the most outstanding PhD thesis of Immunology at the JCSMR, ANU. He then continued as a postdoc with Prof. Vinuesa investigating 1) novel tolerance mechanisms and 2) characterising bespoke mouse models of autoimmunity at the Centre for Personalised Immunology. In 2022 he joined Frazer institute with Prof. Di Yu where he hopes to uncover novel approaches for harnessing T cell biology for therapeutic purposes. Pablo’s research vision is to integrate human and mouse immunology together with systems biology with the hope to better understand antibody responses, mechanisms of immune tolerance and autoimmunity.
