Biography
Dr Rebeca Kawahara is a Cancer Institute NSW Early Career Fellow (2019-22) at the Glycoimmunology group in the Department of Molecular Sciences, Macquarie University. She earned her PhD degree in Functional and Molecular Biology in 2015 from University of Campinas, Brazil and completed two postdoctoral positions with a focus on molecular cancer research at University of Sao Paulo, Brazil (2015-17) and glycoimmunology in the group of Dr Morten Thaysen-Andersen at Macquarie University (2017-18). Her current focus is to understand how protein N-glycosylation modulates the tumour microenvironment and impacts the immune- and cancer-related processes in colorectal cancer.
