Martin Meyerson Berkeley Faculty Research Lecture: David H. Raulet

“Not All Killers Are Bad: How Natural Killer Cells Protect You from Cancer”
Lecture by David H. Raulet
Distinguished Professor of Molecular and Cell Biology
Esther and Wendy Schekman Chair in Cancer Biology
Faculty Director, Immunotherapeutics and Vaccine Research Initiative

David Raulet's research addresses how the immune system recognizes and responds to cancer cells and virus-infected cells. While his early work focused on T lymphocytes, current research emphasizes another immune cell, the natural killer cell. Related to T cells, natural killer cells employ completely different strategies to attack cancerous and infected cells. Raulet has uncovered keys to their capacity for recognizing and destroying many types of cancer cells.

Since 1912, the Academic Senate has selected faculty members who are exceptionally distinguished for their scholarly research to serve as the Faculty Research Lecturers. These public events provide a unique opportunity for the campus community to hear from the very people who are transforming knowledge at Berkeley and in our world.
