Research Overview

Our research interests are to understand cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying the development and function of the immune system. We specifically study:

• Control of antigen receptor gene assembly and dysregulation of the process in lymphoid tumorigenesis.
• Cellular and molecular basis of immunological memory, focusing on CD8 T cell responses to virus infection in the lung and prostate cancer.
• Novel prophylaxis and therapies against virus infection in the lung.
