Immune Cells and Disease
Our lab is focused on understanding the complex interactions among immune cells that take place in target tissues. We have a particular interest in defining the distinctive and strategic organization of immune cells in the peripheral tissues and determining how they contribute to the local induction of pathological or protective immune responses.
