Role of the microbiota and nutrition in immunity

Work conducted in my laboratory explores the mechanisms by which host-microbe responses are regulated in tissues and how dysregulation of these responses leads to pathology. Our research also focusses on the role of the microbiota in the control of host immunity and physiology. My laboratory also explores the role of nutrition in the control of tissue immunity and inflammation.

Keywords: Microbiome / immunity / tolerance / tissue responses / regulation
