Hepatocellular Carcinoma Immune Microenvironment Analysis
Published in Clinical Cancer Research, 2024
As the main project of my PhD, this study investigated the tumor immune microenvironment in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) for the first time following the Immuno-Oncology Working Group’s recommendations. The project demonstrated the applicability and significance of microscopic evaluation of immune responses and their relationship with patient prognosis, histology, and tumor heterogeneity. Additionally, we developed a computational pathology tool to analyze slides with accuracy, interpretability, and reproducibility.
