The immune system protects us against infection and cancer but may also overreact and cause autoimmune disease. Knowledge of molecular mechanisms regulating immune cell activation and control is needed to understand how autoimmune diseases may be prevented or treated.

The immunology group combines proteomics with molecular and cellular biology to investigate the regulation of innate and adaptive immunity, and pathogenic mechanisms involved in autoimmune disease and cancer.

The focus of the Immunbiology Laboratory is immune receptor biology and how this relates to the molecular mechanisms involved in autoimmune disease and cancer.
