James P. Allison Institute
The James P. Allison Institute is dedicated to advancing exceptional discovery, translational and clinical research to integrate immunobiology across disciplines and unlock the full potential of science and medicine for human health. The institute builds upon the legacy of its namesake, James P. Allison, Ph.D., who was awarded the 2018 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his fundamental discoveries in T cell biology and his invention of ipilimumab, the first immune checkpoint inhibitor to treat cancer.
Meet Dr. James Allison, Dr. Padmanee Sharma and Dr. Raghu Kalluri at the ASCO Annual Meeting on Monday, June 6 from 2-3 p.m. at booth 6122.
