Oxford Global is proud to present the first Natural Killer Cell Symposium, a one-day virtual event set to take place on the 24th May 2023, EDT (UTC -4). This meeting will welcome over 150 attendees from across industry and academia, coming together on our intuitive virtual platform to discuss the latest developments in NK cell-based therapies for cancer. 

Driven by current industry trends, presentations will cover topics ranging from allogeneic NK therapies, to the genetic modification of cells, to combination strategies with novel agents. We will also be exploring solid tumour targeting with NK cells, as well as examples of CAR-NK trials for haematological malignancies. 

This BRAND-NEW event for 2023 will also feature live interactive sessions for you to get involved with – with Q&As throughout the day with our speakers and a panel discussion on: 

• Optimal Cell Origins For Successful Application: iPSC, Cord, Or Peripheral Blood? 
• Producing allogeneic NK therapies 
• Combating persistence and cell exhaustion challenges 
• Ensuring long-term efficacy with minimal repeat treatments 

Explore the latest innovations in this fast-emerging area of immuno-oncology and learn more about how industry leaders are tackling industry-wide challenges, as well as the most recent research going into understanding the immune system to create more effective therapies.
