Research

Our research interests in the laboratory focus on the innate and adaptive immune system and their role in immune-mediated diseases. Our group has a broad range of research interests that include:

• The fundamental process of T cell activation versus tolerance
• Regulatory T cells (Treg)
• Neonatal and infant immunity
• Immune diseases of the esophagus and GI tract
• Vaccines and vaccine adjuvants
• Viral infections

Our clinical research projects offer drug therapies to selected patients. You can learn more about our research by visiting our Pediatric Immunology division Web site.
