Laboratory of Microbial Immunology
Our focus lies in unraveling the intricate cell fate decisions guided by antigen presentation within the immune system. We delve into the realm of antigen-presenting cells, exploring their biology, interactions with various cell types, and the intricate mechanisms they employ to modulate T-cell responses, be it in response to pathogens, commensal microorganisms, or self-structures. Our overarching goal is to gain a comprehensive understanding of the underlying mechanisms that give rise to immune-related pathologies. By doing so, we aim to pave the way for the development of more effective treatment strategies in the future.
Research area
Host-pathogen interactions, antigen presenting cells, adaptive immunity.
