Join us for a new SNEV Translational EV Series!
 Join us for a translational session with Dr. Le Thi Nguyet Minh, who will share her research on the development of bispecific extracellular vesicles (BEVs) as a novel approach to cancer immunotherapy! Talk title: "Development of Bispecific Extracellular Vesicles for Cancer Immunotherapy" Why attend? In this session, Dr. Minh will present a biocompatible and efficient platform using natural EVs derived from human red blood cells, engineered to target both T cells and cancer cells. She will discuss how these bispecific EVs enhance T-cell responses, promote immune cell recruitment to tumors, and reduce tumor burden in mouse models of lung and pancreatic cancers. The talk will also highlight promising safety findings in non-human primates and the potential of this adaptable platform for future clinical translation. About the speaker: Dr. Le Thi Nguyet Minh is an Associate Professor and Graduate Program Director in the Department of Pharmacology, as well as Research Director at the Institute for Digital Medicine, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore ?? She received her Ph.D. from the Singapore-MIT Alliance and completed her postdoctoral training at Boston Children’s Hospital. She leads the Engineered Extracellular Vesicles for Anti-Cancer Therapy (EVANTICA) program, where her group develops innovative strategies to harness and engineer EVs for targeted delivery. Her research has received multiple national and international awards, and she serves as a Deputy/Associate Editor for the Journal of Extracellular Biology and the Journal of Extracellular Vesicles. Moderators: Heather Tanner and Maimonah Al-Masawa Date & time: October 6, 2026 Find your time zone here: https://notime.zone/P2Y2sO9wxWPU7.
