Olivier Gires is a group leader at the ENT research department, Munich Medical Center, Germany and leading head of the Clinical Cooperation Group Molecular Oncology at the GSF. In 1999, he obtained his PhD in biology for his work on Epstein-Barr virus´ oncoprotein LMP1. Thereafter, Olivier Gires focused on the identification and molecular characterization of tumor-associated antigens with particular emphasis on the elucidation of the function of the therapeutic target EpCAM. Work by his group unraveled the oncogenic potential of EpCAM along with underlying molecular mechanisms. Additionally, he was decisively involved in the development of the target identification technology AMIDA.

"Overall, the book is very detailed and certainly of use to those working in cancer vaccine and tumour antigen research. It is also readable by those who are not directly in the field but have an interest in cancer and emerging cancer treatments. The general information on techniques provided is also a valuable resource for those considering using these techniques. The book is well produced with few errors." ( Australian Biochemist, August 2010)
