We perform fundamental, preclinical, translational and clinical research favoring a bench-to-bedside practice. For its translational and clinical research, LEH collaborates very closely with the Center for Cell Therapy & Regenerative Medicine (CCRG) – Antwerp University Hospital (leader: prof. Zwi Berneman). LEH is composed of 3 major subgroups: 1. Experimental Cell Transplantation Group (ECTG) (group leader: prof. Peter Ponsaerts) 2. Tumor Immunology Group (TIGr) (group leaders: prof. Viggo Van Tendeloo) 3. Immune Regulation & Tolerance-Inducing Strategies Research Group (IRIS) (group leader: prof. Nathalie Cools)" "Yannick Willemen" "Laboratory for Experimental Hematology (LEH)"
