Abhishek Garg Has Been Awarded the 2025 AstraZeneca Foundation Award for Biomedical Scientific Research

AstraZeneca shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Prof. Abhishek Garg, Laboratory for Cell Stress and Immunity (CSI), KU Leuven has been awarded the 2025 AstraZeneca Foundation Award for Biomedical Scientific Research.

Prof. Garg is awarded for his research on cancer immunotherapy, a treatment that activates the immune system in order to attack cancer cells but still fails in many patients.

Professor Garg’s lab created an innovative multi-omics/spatial work-flow that drove the creation of artificial intelligence (AI)-driven patient classifiers and novel immunotherapies, both tailored to overcome immuno-resistant tumors.

Since 2016, the AstraZeneca Foundation awards every two years a prize for a biomedical scientific research that has contributed, or could contribute, to improving human health. The Belgian Royal Academies of Medicine (Académie royale de Médecine de Belgique and KAGB) are entrusted to designate a jury made of members of both Academies as well as international experts to review the applications and nominate the two laureates.

Abhishek D. Garg, Research Assistant Professor at KU Leuven, shared this post, adding:

“Thanks a lot AstraZeneca Foundation for this wonderful video summarising our cancer, immunotherapy and AI biomarkers research!”
