Integrated Department of Immunology
The Integrated Department of Immunology is fully devoted to research
focused on molecular mechanisms operative in the immune system. Faculty
in the Department study questions as diverse as how the immune system
is able to discriminate between self and non-self thus avoiding
autoimmunity, to inter- and intracellular communication, to immunity to
cancer and infectious agents, to the basis of immunosenescence. All of
these processes are subject to genetic influences, and recognition of
influential genes will inform personalization of medical intervention.
Thus our approaches address the impact of both nature and nurture on
immune function and dysfunction.
