Our body is colonized by a robust and diverse ecosystem - the commensal microbiome. When mucosal pathogens infect us, they first encounter our commensals... Read more about Smita Gopinath
The major focus of my laboratory is to understand the role of the NF-κB family of transcription factors in regulating innate inflammatory responses. NF-κB...
We seek to develop and apply technologies (particularly revolving around high-dimensional tissue imaging) to address questions related to host-disease...
The overarching goal of the Jost lab is to define the molecular mechanisms of host-microbiome communication using a combination of systematic CRISPR...
The Lynch Lab studies immunometabolism. One major research focus is to understand the interdependence of the immune and metabolic systems, especially in...
My laboratory studies pathomechanisms in wound healing and inflammation, utilizing human genetics, mouse genetics, and innovative OMICs technologies, as...
The research of my lab focuses on understanding how metabolites act as signaling molecules to regulate diverse biological processes. We apply state-of-the...
