Research
Cantor’s early studies focused on the development and function of lymphocytes derived from the thymus (T-lymphocytes or T cells).[4] In particular, his research addressed whether the multiple immunological functions of T cells were invested in a single lineage or represented the specialized activities of distinct T cell subsets.[5][6][7][8][9] This approach depended on the use of antibodies to cell surface glycoproteins or “markers” that might identify specialized subsets of lymphocytes with particular immunologic functions.[10] This experimental approach was also used to investigate other lymphocyte populations, including “natural killer” cells.[11] His laboratory continues to investigate the molecular and cellular elements that regulate the immune response and maintain self-tolerance.[12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20]
Education
Cantor received an A.B. from Columbia University and M.D. from New York University School of Medicine, followed by fellowship training at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in Bethesda, MD with Richard Asofsky and as an NIH Special Fellow at the National Institute for Medical Research in Mill Hill, London. Following a residency in medicine at Stanford, he joined the faculty of Harvard Medical School in 1974 as an Assistant Professor of Medicine and, since 1979, has been Professor of Pathology. In 1998, Cantor was appointed Chair of the Department of Cancer Immunology & AIDS at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and in 2007 he was honored by appointment to the Baruj Benacerraf Professorship at Harvard Medical School.
Awards
Cantor was elected to the National Academy of Sciences (2002), the American Association for the Advancement of Science (2005) and the American Academy of Arts & Sciences (2010).[21]
