About the Research Group RNA-Immunotherapies

The research group of Dr.Dr.Haraszti focuses on the preclinical development of RNAi-based drugs to engineer therapeutic immune responses for several hematologic malignancies. We use state-of-the-art RNA technology equivalent to approved RNAi drugs. The overarching goal is transcriptionally repogram immune cells in order to increase efficacy and optimize safety of immunological cell therapies. The specific goal of this postdoctoral position is to develop state-of-the-art tools to deliver advanced RNAi drugs to T cells in vivo, and to define RNAi-responsive, actionable transcriptional programs in T cells in a personalized manner.
