Overview

Jeffrey W. Pollard is affiliated with the University of Edinburgh in the United Kingdom. Their research spans multiple interrelated fields, primarily focusing on immunology, microbiology, medicine, and biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology.

The scientist has a significant publication record in subfields such as immunology, molecular biology, oncology, reproductive medicine, and obstetrics and gynecology. Their work addresses a variety of main topics, including immune cells in cancer, phagocytosis and immune regulation, epigenetics and DNA methylation, reproductive system and pregnancy, chemokine receptors and signaling, cancer cells and metastasis, and immune response and inflammation.

Jeffrey W. Pollard has contributed to several papers notable in the field of cancer immunology and macrophage biology. Some recent publications include:

  • A timeline of tumour-associated macrophage biology, 2023, Nature Reviews Cancer
  • Glioblastomas acquire myeloid-affiliated transcriptional programs via epigenetic immunoediting to elicit immune evasion, 2021, Cell
  • Tumor-associated macrophages, 2020, Current Biology
  • Macrophage targeting in cancer, 2020, Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences
  • Differential expansion of circulating human MDSC subsets in patients with cancer, infection and inflammation, 2020, Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer

Frequent co-authors collaborating with Pollard include:

  • Luca Cassetta
  • Martha Lopez-Yrigoyen
  • Hui Zhang
  • Bin-Zhi Qian
  • Yuliana Astuti

The scientist publishes regularly in venues such as Cancer Research, Nature Cancer, Cancers, Journal of Visualized Experiments, and Wellcome Open Research, indicating consistent contributions to top journals in cancer biology and immunology.

Jeffrey W. Pollard's research primarily centers on mechanisms involving the immune system's interaction with cancer, particularly focusing on macrophages and myeloid-derived cells. This focus aligns with their extensive work on immune regulation, tumor microenvironment, and epigenetic factors affecting immune evasion in cancer contexts.

The scientist has been recognized with fellowships, including as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh awarded in 2015 and as a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) in 2011.
