About the Webinar

In this live webinar, Ramji Srinivasan, cofounder and CEO of Teiko Bio, will walk through the precision and stability data for our mass cytometry assay for pan-immune profiling of PBMCs isolated from healthy human clinical samples.

About the Speaker

Before Teiko, Ramji was Cofounder, CEO and Chairman of Counsyl, a women’s health genetic screening laboratory. Counsyl screened over 1M prospective parents, mothers-to-be and women at risk of hereditary cancer. In 2018, Counsyl was acquired by Myriad Genetics, Inc for $375M in cash and stock.

Ramji earned a B.S. in computer science and an M.S. in financial mathematics, both from Stanford University. Ramji also attended Stanford’s Graduate School of Business before dropping out to start Counsyl.

About the Webinar

In this technical webinar, Jolien Sweere, PhD, discusses data from a technical validation experiment performed by Teiko Bio showing how mass cytometry immune profiling data from whole blood compares to data from PBMCs.

Technical validation slides available here.

About the Speaker

Jolien Sweere, PhD completed her doctoral training in Immunology at Stanford University in the laboratory of Paul Bollyky. During her PhD, she found that a type of temperate filamentous bacteriophage that infects Pseudomonas aeruginosa is associated with chronic human wound infections. Her work was published in Science in 2019.

After completing her PhD, Jolien worked as a Life Sciences commercial strategy consultant at Charles River Associates in San Francisco. She joined Teiko Bio in 2022 as a Senior Scientist, Medical Strategy.

Illustration. In the center is a grey mass labeled "tumor" under a magnifying glass. Inside the tumor are three grey cells all with "zzz" above them. Outside the magnifying glass (and therefore outside the tumor) in the four corners are different depictions. Top left shows three red cells and is labeled "novel T cell clones". Top right shows a lymph node with red T cell zones and the words "LN trafficking required". Bottom right shows two red T cells in a blood vessel labeled "LAG-3 and CD8+" with the words "peripheral biomarkers". Bottom left shows a spleen with the same grey, sleeping T cells. There's a red lightning bolt and the words "impaired systemic immune response in cancer".

Peripheral blood analysis is key to developing effective cancer immunotherapies

Although most research focuses on tumor-killing immune cells at the site of the tumor, new research increasingly demonstrates the value of studying circulating immune cells in peripheral blood to identify new therapeutic targets to enhance tumor-killing immune responses. We highlight recent publications with peripheral blood biomarkers and discuss recommendations for how to incorporate peripheral blood immune profiling into your drug development pipeline.
