Previous Episode: Episode 4: Susan Lynch

Welcome back! After an easy start with Oren last July, I was able to catch a big fish - a world-renowned UCSF faculty member in our Diabetes Center, Jeff Bluestone. Jeff has made remarkable contributions to our understanding of T-cell activation, co-stimulation, and immune tolerance including >400 peer-reviewed publications. He shares his passion for collaborative science, including his leadership roles at UCSF, the Immune Tolerance Network, the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy, and more. Despite these "big science" projects, Jeff remains closely involved in his lab's research and is a committed mentor.
