Maggie Colton Cove
I'm a graduate student at UCSF focusing on translational cancer research. In my undergrad at University of Chicago I researched several small-molecule inhibitors against leukemia, investigating novel combination treatments for ALL and AML. I'm now interested in exploring other forms of cancer treatment, primarily immunotherapies. In the Okada lab, I'm investigating the application of engineered T cells against CNS tumors and working to improve the efficacy of these treatments. I'm a recipient of the T32 Translational Brain Tumor Research Training Grant and a Discovery Fellow. Outside of lab I enjoy playing music, trying new recipes and podcasting with Carry the One Radio.
