Then, he specialized in different strategies of Cancer Immunotherapy with a MSc in Biomedical Research (2008), and a PhD Degree (2012) from the University of Navarra (Pamplona) – Cima University of Navarra. More than 12 years in translational research focus on antitumor immune responses and Cancer Immunotherapy. Author of 64 publications indexed in PubMed in prestigious international journals, with h-index 30 and 4,296 cites (October 2022). He completed the Program of Sara Borrell (ISCIII) -competitive Postdoctoral contract- in the Group of Immune Receptors of the Innate and Adaptive System (IDIBAPS), Barcelona (2016-2018). Co-author of 1 invention patent: Composition based on the fibronectin domain A for the treatment of melanoma - WO/2011/101332. In 2012, Fernando Aranda obtained a Scientific Award, "Profesor Durantez" II Edición, for the best scientific article in Tumor Immunology by Fundación LAIR. Recently, Fernando Aranda awarded a competitive Research Fellow contract “Miguel Servet tipo I” by Instituto de Salud Carlos III, to continue his independent researcher career (IP) in cancer immunotherapy issues. Specifically, he is involved in Translational Immunotherapy of Peritoneal Carcinomatosis. Currently, Fernando Aranda leads a research group in cooperation with Dr. Pedro Berraondo.

Aitziber Buque Martinez
Aitziber Buqué is currently a Post-Doctoral Associate with the Galluzzi Lab, in the Department of Radiation Oncology at Weill Cornell Medical College (New York), where she investigates innate and acquired mechanisms of resistance to immunotherapy in HR+ breast cancer and radiotherapy as a means to overcome them. Prior to joining the Galluzzi Lab (2018), Aitziber was a Post-Doctoral Associate with the Kroemer Lab in the Cordeliers Research Center (Paris, France; 2014-2018), after receiving her M.Sc. in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (2006) from the Complutense University (Madrid, Spain) and her Ph.D. in Biomedicine (2013) from the BioCruces Research Institute (Barakaldo, Spain). Aitziber has a long-standing interest in the immunological mechanisms controlling cancer progression and response to treatment.

Jose Manuel Bravo-San Pedro
Jose Manuel Bravo-San Pedro is currently a researcher at the Department of Physiology of the Complutense University of Madrid thanks to a Ramon y Cajal contract grant. He got his Ph.D. in biochemistry, cellular biology and genetics from the University of Extremadura (Caceres, Spain) in 2011, and he did a post-doctoral stage in the laboratory of Prof. Guido Kroemer. His main research interests have always been linked to autophagy, addressing this cellular process associated with neurodegenerative diseases or cancer and recently obesity and specifically related to problems in the correct functioning of the cilium. He is co-inventor of two patents and co-author of 110 publications indexed in PubMed in prestigious international journals, with h-index 45 and 23768 cites (Dec 2022).
