Zewen Kelvin Tuong
Dr. Kelvin (Zewen) Tuong leads the Computational Immunology group at the Ian Frazer Centre for Children’s Immunotherapy Research at the University of Queensland. His lab is focused on investigating how paediatric immunity is perturbed during cancer at the cellular level and how this information can be used for creating novel warning systems for children with cancer. He was originally trained as a molecular cell biologist and gradually transitioned into bioinformatics during his post-doctoral training. He has been very prolific for an early career researcher, having published >70 articles since 2013, with nearly a third of them as first/co-first or last author and has a stellar track record of pushing out highly collaborative work in prestigious journals including Nature, Cell, Science, Nature Medicine, J Exp Med etc. He is interested in single-cell analysis of immune cells and harnessing adaptive immune receptors for understanding immune cell development and function in health and in cancer.
