Professional Interests
We investigate how T cells traffic and respond to infections. In particular, we study the signals that regulate T cell migration and activation to ensure protective immunity while preventing autoimmunity and immunodeficiency disease.
In the right place at the right time: tissue-resident memory T cells in immunity to cancer. Toward high-throughput engineering techniques for improving CAR intracellular signaling domains. Cell type-specific Interaction Analysis using Doublets in scRNA-seq (CIcADA). Superkine IL-2 and IL-33 Armored CAR T Cells Reshape the Tumor Microenvironment and Reduce Growth of Multiple Solid Tumors. Life support for transitory exhausted CTLs. Resident memory CD8(+) T cells in regional lymph nodes mediate immunity to metastatic melanoma. IL-6 enhances CD4 cell motility by sustaining mitochondrial Ca(2+) through the noncanonical STAT3 pathway. Dendritic cells maintain anti-tumor immunity by positioning CD8 skin-resident memory T cells. Engineering a natural ligand-based CAR: directed evolution of the stress-receptor NKp30. Diverse Roles of Akt in T cells. |
