C. Garrison Fathman

Professor of Medicine (Immunology and Rheumatology), Emeritus
Research Interests
My lab of molecular and cellular immunology is interested in research in the general field of T cell activation and autoimmunity. We have identified and characterized a gene (GRAIL) that seems to control regulatory T cell (Treg) responsiveness by inhibiting the Treg IL-2 receptor desensitization. We have characterized a gene (Deaf1) that plays a major role in peripheral tolerance in T1D. Using PBC gene expression, we have provisionally identified a signature of risk and progression in T1D.

Zinaida Good, Ph.D.

Assistant Professor of Medicine (Immunology and Rheumatology)
Research Interests
Our laboratory integrates cutting-edge synthetic biology, immunology, and machine learning to engineer T cell therapies for cancer and autoimmune diseases. We have 3 research areas:
- Analysis of clinical single-cell and spatial transcriptomics datasets from T cell therapy trials to identify mechanisms of resistance
- Building AI systems to generate T cell designs predicted to improve patient outcomes
- Genetic screens of novel T cell designs in models that mimic key mechanisms of resistance
