We study how immune dysfunction leads to chronic inflammatory diseases. As inflammation and metabolism are intimately linked, we are interested in dissecting how immune-metabolic interactions regulate the immune system. The major goals of our lab are to understand (1) how changes in systemic metabolism impact immune function, (2) how cellular metabolic pathways regulate immune cell function, and (3) how tissue-resident immune cells regulate inflammation and systemic metabolic health. Ultimately, we are interested in novel biological roles of metabolites and how metabolism inevitably influences diverse cellular processes of leukocytes. We combine expertise in immunology and metabolism to address these outstanding questions, with the goal of developing novel metabolic strategies to alleviate inflammation and improve immune protection.
