We explore the development, plasticity and functional specialization of mononuclear phagocyte subpopulations in antiviral immune defense, intestinal inflammation and cancer. Investiagting the interaction of dendritic cells with CD4+ T lymphocytes and the ensuing adaptive immune response is a focus of our work. read more
