Amanda W. Lund is an Associate Professor at the NYU Grossman School of Medicine, holding dual appointments in the Ronald O. Perelman Department of Dermatology and Department of Pathology. She also serves as Director of the PhD Curriculum at the Vilcek Institute.
- Education: PhD from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
- Postdoctoral Training: Laboratory of Lymphatic and Cancer Bioengineering at Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne
Dr. Lund's research focuses on the critical role of lymphatic vasculature in cutaneous and tumor immunity. Her work explores how lymphatic vessels regulate adaptive immune responses, influence tumor immune escape, and impact metastasis dynamics. Key methodologies include 3D imaging, single-cell transcriptomics, and cell-specific proteomics to study these interactions in vivo.
Her recent publications highlight lymphatic vessel contributions to T-cell trafficking in melanoma, immune surveillance mechanisms, and strategies to enhance cancer immunotherapy by targeting lymphatic-immune interfaces. Research trends show a strong emphasis on translational approaches bridging lymphatic biology with clinical oncology challenges.
