Host-microbe interactions at mucosal surfaces
Two lines of research are carried out in my lab. One is on developing new approaches of cancer immunotherapy. We are using bacteria to foster an antitumor immunity. The second line of research is in mucosal immunology. We are studying the role of dendritic cells in immune intestinal homeostasis.
