The broad interest of the WAGERS LAB is to identify and analyze tissue-specific stem cell populations in adult animals. This work focuses on understanding the factors controlling the migration and expansion of bone marrow-derived and blood-forming...
I was born and raised in Southern California, attended UCLA with a major in Applied Math and Physical Chemistry and Harvard Medical School, with postdoctoral research training in the laboratory of David Livingston at Dana Farber Cancer Institute, as well...
Overview:
Our studies seek to leverage new tools capable of defining the dynamic nature of cell surface glycans on immune cells and microbes. This approach has provided insight into the role of glycans in immune cell development and differentiation, in...
Rapid advances in gene engineering make the previously unimaginable rapidly accessible. The Smith Lab for Genetic and Cellular Engineering uses synthetic biology to address our missions of: (1) answering pressing questions around the biology of...
The Early Life Development of the Immune System
The main focus of the Jain lab is to understand how immunity develops in early life. In utero, the developing fetal immune system must tolerate myriad maternal antigenic exposures including nutrients...
