RESEARCH SUMMARY
Rajiv Trehan is a predoctoral fellow in the prestigious NIH Medical Research Scholars Program since July 2022. He holds a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering from Case Western Reserve University, where he graduated summa cum laude. Rajiv's interdisciplinary background bridges biomedical engineering and clinical science, focusing on computational science, tumor immunology, biomaterials, and drug delivery.
His research in the Greten Lab at the NIH examines tumor immunology, particularly the role of immune cells in the liver. Rajiv's projects include identifying novel mechanisms of immune evasion in liver cancer, with recent findings on the conversion of tumor-supporting macrophages, as well as contributing to clinical trials exploring novel immunotherapies for unresectable liver cancer. His work has led to several first-author and co-authored publications in leading journals such as Cell.
