B cells are important immune cells. They produce antibodies against foreign molecules on pathogens, and in this way they protect us against disease....
The Cantor lab studies the development and function of T-cell subsets. Early studies indicated that the thymus gave rise to two major lineages of T cells...
Our laboratory investigates the cell biological basis of inflammation and wound healing with special emphasis on leukocyte-endothelial interactions. The...

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 main focus of this laboratory is to elucidate the role of ATP and adenosine receptor signaling in immune cell activation. We have discovered that...
My laboratory research focuses on T lymphocyte mediated immunopathology. We study the mechanisms of migration of different effector T cell subsets of into... Read more about Andrew H. Lichtman
The Lynch Lab studies immunometabolism. One major research focus is to understand the interdependence of the immune and metabolic systems, especially in...
The research of my lab focuses on understanding how metabolites act as signaling molecules to regulate diverse biological processes. We apply state-of-the...
The Rollins laboratory works on chemokines, which are low molecular weight proteins that attract specific leukocyte subtypes. Because there are over 50...
The Smillie Lab uses systems approaches to understand the mechanisms of host-microbiome interactions. Our research interests are broad, spanning mucosal...
Immune cells play important roles in retinal vascular development/remodeling/repair and degeneration. Immune dysregulation during these processes in the...
The main research focus of our laboratory is to establish the cellular, molecular, and genetic basis for the immunopathogenesis of susceptibility to develop... Read more about Edmond J. Yunis
Research in my lab focuses on elucidating mechanisms regulating tissue homeostasis and inflammation. Mammalian tissues are ecological communities of...
