We study T cell immunity to tuberculosis (TB). In mice, we characterize mechanisms of CD4 T cell evasion in TB, and we study humans to discover mechanisms that provide protective immunity to TB that can be improved by vaccines.
Mechanisms of signaling and trafficking at the primary cilium, biogenesis of extracellular vesicles.

Our program explores the impact of metabolic stress on deregulated micro-RNA controlled hematopoiesis and immune cell function in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, including through intercellular signaling via exosomes
We study how genetic changes that accumulated over the last 6 million years of human evolution influence specialized features of brain development using single cell genomics, cerebral organoid models of ape brain development, and genome engineering.
Early stages of development of neurodegenerative diseases in humans. Dr. Grinberg employs a combination of well characterized postmortem human brain tissue, Neurons derived from IPSc lines and advanced methods of imaging processing.
We study how the different cell types in the liver, in particular the hepatocyte, are generated during development, patterned and maintained during adulthood, and regenerate after injury.
