Florian Wiede 30th Lorne Cancer Conference 2018

Florian Wiede

Dr. Wiede completed his PhD at the Nikolaus-Fiebiger-Centre for Molecular Medicine/University Erlangen-Nuremberg in 2005 and undertook his postdoctoral training with Prof. Tony Tiganis at Monash University in Melbourne. During this time Dr. Wiede has made some important contributions to our understanding how protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) regulate thymic and peripheral T cell development to prevent excessive responses to self. In 2021 he was appointed as a group leader at the Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute in the laboratory of Prof. Tiganis. He utilises both cell-based and animal models to develop novel approaches for enhancing cytotoxic T cell responses in the context of T cell adoptive cancer immunotherapy.
