Innate immunity in the respiratory tract is exquisitely complex and tightly regulated, surveying 10,000 liters of air a day. While canonical pattern-...
The major scientific interest of the Butovsky lab is to understand the biology of resident microglia and peripheral innate immunity in brain homeostasis...
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...
Associate Professor of Microbiology and Immunobiology
Our goal is to understand the role of neural-immune interactions in pain, host defense, and immunity. It is increasingly clear that microbes and immune...
Assistant Professor of Immunology and Infectious Diseases
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
We seek to develop and apply technologies (particularly revolving around high-dimensional tissue imaging) to address questions related to host-disease...
The Lynch Lab studies immunometabolism. One major research focus is to understand the interdependence of the immune and metabolic systems, especially in...
The Smillie Lab uses systems approaches to understand the mechanisms of host-microbiome interactions. Our research interests are broad, spanning mucosal...
We are interested in interactions between the two fundamental cell types of the nervous system, neurons and glia. My laboratory seeks to understand how...
Immune cells play important roles in retinal vascular development/remodeling/repair and degeneration. Immune dysregulation during these processes in the...
