Key topics include:
Why the tumor microenvironment remains a major barrier for cell therapy
How KiraGen uses combinatorial gene editing to engineer durable CAR-T responses
The role of AI in designing better cell therapies
Why we believe GBM is the ideal first application
Insights for the next generation of biotech entrepreneurs
