Grantee name: Simona Kranjc Brezar
Start and end date: 1.4.2026-31.5.2026

During my two-month STSM at IPBS Toulouse, I gained hands-on experience in spectral flow cytometry and intravital microscopy for studying immune responses following electrochemotherapy.

Using syngeneic mouse tumor models, we investigated how electrochemotherapy reshapes the tumor microenvironment and influences anti-tumor immune responses. In addition, I shared my expertise in electrochemotherapy and provided practical training on the implementation of electrochemotherapy protocols.

This exchange facilitated bidirectional knowledge transfer, strengthened the collaboration between IPBS Toulouse and the Institute of Oncology Ljubljana, and created new opportunities for future joint research projects.
