Bio
Dr. Testa is a medical oncologist and physician-scientist specializing in cellular therapy and the care of patients with soft tissue and bone sarcomas. He earned his medical degree from the University of Naples Federico II in Naples, Italy. He subsequently moved to the United States and conducted research in the laboratory of Dr. Ronald Levy at Stanford University, where he studied intratumoral vaccination strategies and mRNA delivery platforms designed to target B cells and T cells in vivo. He completed his internal medicine residency at Stanford University, followed by a fellowship in hematology and oncology at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. Dr. Testa’s research focuses on identifying targets for adoptive T-cell therapies in solid tumors, particularly soft tissue and bone sarcomas, and on novel synthetic biology approaches to enhance the effectiveness of T-cell therapies against solid tumors.
