Overview

Michael D. Waterfield was affiliated with Ludwig Cancer Research in Belgium. Their research spanned multiple fields including immunology, microbiology, and medicine.

Their scientific contributions covered several subfields such as immunology, neurology, genetics, and molecular biology. Key topics addressed in their work included neuroblastoma research and treatments, chronic lymphocytic leukemia research, PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling in cancer, immunotherapy and immune responses, T-cell and B-cell immunology, and immune cell function and interaction.

Among their recent publications were:

  • "Republication: Targeting PI3KC2β Impairs Proliferation and Survival in Acute Leukemia, Brain Tumours and Neuroendocrine Tumours," 2022, Anticancer Research
  • "The transcriptional regulator Aire coopts the repressive ATF7ip-MBD1 complex for the induction of immunotolerance," 2020, UNC Libraries
  • "Control of medullary thymic epithelial cell development and central tolerance by a zinc finger transcription factor," 2022, The Journal of Immunology

Frequent co-authors collaborating with Waterfield included Danielle Boller, Kathrin T. Doepfner, Angela De Laurentiis, Ana Guerreiro Stücklin, and Marin Marinov.

Their work was published in venues such as:
