LYMPHOCYTE ACTIVATION LAB

T and B lymphocytes, vital for our health, form the adaptive immune system. We investigate the regulation of B lymphocyte activation that mounts specific and highly effective antibody responses against pathogens. However, if lymphocyte activation is defected, we face pathological conditions such as autoimmunity or lymphoma. In our research, we integrate advanced light microscopy and proteomic approaches with cellular and in vivo models, to gain novel understanding on the cell biological phenomena of B cell activation... We are recruiting! Looking for highly motivated Master's thesis students and/or research assistants who would aspire to continue towards PhD in B cell biology in health and disease. See our add for more details.
