Join us for a fascinating conversation with Dr. Livnat Jerby, an Assistant Professor of Genetics at Stanford University, Chan Zuckerberg Biohub Investigator, and Paul Allen Distinguished Investigator. In this episode, Dr. Jerby shares how her lab is decoding and engineering immune circuits to create next-generation cell therapies, drawing on high-throughput technologies and computational modeling. We explore how multicellular programs shape disease and immunity, revisit her work on immune evasion during her time at the Broad Institute, and discuss the future of synthetic immune systems and interdisciplinary science. Hosted by Emma Chen.
