Fernando Aranda Vega
Fernando Aranda holds a BSc in Biology (2006) and Biochemistry (2007) from the University of Navarra. 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.

Pedro Berraondo
Pedro Berraondo graduated in Pharmacy at the University of Navarra in 1999. In 2004 he obtained the Ph.D. at the same university. Next, he worked at the Pasteur Institute in Paris (France) under the supervision of Dr. Claude Leclerc, where he developed novel strategies in tumor immunotherapy within the European THERAVAC project. In February 2007, he joined the Immunology and Immunotherapy Program at the Cima Universidad de Navarra, where he leads the Cytokine-based Immunotherapy laboratory. He is co-inventor of ten patents and he is co-author of more than 140 publications, including publications in Nature, Nature Medicine, Nature Reviews Drug Discovery, Immunity, Cancer Discovery, and Cancer Cell. He was certified as a full professor in 2021 by AQU. He is co-director of the degree of expert in immunooncology at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Navarra, and is in charge of the undergraduate course of macromolecular structure at the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Navarra. He is also the coordinator of the immuno-oncology work module at CIBERONC.
