Christina Cho, PhD, is a cancer biologist who studies the role of the tumor microenvironment in the development and progression of solid tumors, including colorectal, pancreatic, and lung cancers. Her previous work includes identifying a novel role for unfolded matrix proteins in the progression of non-small cell lung cancer and identifying a new mechanism for type I interferon-mediated inhibition of primary tumor growth. Currently, she is investigating the mechanisms underlying tumor-mediated immune evasion in melanoma and lung cancer.
