Lymphocyte antigen receptor signaling
My group studies the signaling pathways that orchestrate the assembly of the immunological synapse during T cell activation and their dysregulation in primary immunodeficiencies, autoimmunity and cancer. We are also interested in understanding how pathogens target these pathways to evade the immune defenses of the host.
