We are delighted to announce that Ido Amit has been selected as the recipient of the 2025 Pezcoller Foundation-EACR Translational Cancer Researcher Award.

Ido Amit

Professor Ido Amit has led and pioneered the development of single-cell genomics and its application to characterisation of the immune system. Noticeably, his lab has made some of the most dramatic technology developments in this emerging field. His research using these technologies has revolutionised our understanding of the immune system, identifying dozens of new immune cell states and pathways and their roles in tumour immunology.

The Pezcoller Foundation-EACR Translational Cancer Researcher Award celebrates academic excellence and achievements in fundamental cancer research that have the potential for future clinical development. The award is presented annually to a researcher of excellence with no more than 15 years post-doctoral experience (or equivalent degree).

Ido Amit will give the prestigious Pezcoller Foundation-EACR Translational Cancer Researcher Award Lecture at the EACR 2025 Congress. He will also be invited to give a lecture in Trento, Italy, at the Pezcoller Foundation, and will receive a €10,000 honorarium.

Please join us in congratulating Ido on this well-deserved recognition and wishing his continued success in his research endeavours.
