Amanda W. Lund is an Associate Professor at the NYU Grossman School of Medicine, specifically within the Ronald O. Perelman Department of Dermatology and the Department of Pathology. She is also the Director of the PhD Curriculum at the Vilcek Institute for Graduate Education. Her research primarily focuses on the lymphatic vasculature, emphasizing its critical role in linking peripheral tissues to secondary lymphoid organs and its function in modulating adaptive immune responses. Her studies investigate how lymphatic vessels can actively regulate tumor immunity, contributing to understanding immune evasion in cancers such as melanoma. Utilizing sophisticated techniques like three-dimensional imaging and single-cell transcriptomics, her long-term goal is to identify novel therapeutic targets within the lymphatic system to improve cancer immunotherapy outcomes.
