Research Interests
My research interests are human immunology, immune regulation, systems biology and translational medicine. My goal is to understand the mechanisms governing immunological tolerance, and to leverage this knowledge to cure disease. Currently, I am working to uncover the underlying mechanisms governing type 1 regulatory T (Tr1) cell differentiation and function, and design novel Tr1 cell-based therapies for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and cancer immunotherapy.
