Immunology

The Wilder lab aims to prevent immune-mediated adverse side effects associated with cytokine therapy by understanding innate immune regulation and developing dynamically controlled therapies.

Mechanisms of microbial communication in the human microbiome

Engineering and understanding gene regulation; combinatorial functional genomics; tissue biology

Our research examines how tissue mechanics influence the aging process.

coordination of lung/airway tissue biology and defense through cooperation between the immune system and airway epithelial cells

Developing targeted treatments in ovarian and endometrial cancer by incorporating the tumor microenvironment.

The Shy Lab employs cutting-edge genome and epigenome engineering techniques to address the current limitations in cell therapy development, manufacture, and delivery.

At the Nicolas-Avila Lab, we explore the mechanisms by which immune cells contribute to tissue function and develop strategies to improve organismal health through immunomodulation.

We study how the innate immune system (the body’s first line of immune defense) evolves to defend us against the vast and fast-changing world of viruses.

The Cho Lab is focused on understanding principles of molecular and cellular interactions between cancer and immunity.
