Dennis Jones, PhD is an Assistant Professor of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine at the Boston University School of Medicine. The current focus of the Jones laboratory is delineating the immune evasion mechanisms used by cancer cells to persist in lymph nodes and eventually metastasize to distant organs. The goal of the Jones laboratory is to identify strategies and molecular targets to stop the growth of metastases by enhancing anti-tumor immunity.
