We study immunity in the epithelial tissues that line our body to understand how environmental stimuli collaborate with genetic factors to influence health and drive disease at these interfaces. Our work centers on four major areas of research:

Host-microbe interactions

Host-microbe interactions

Immune-tissue crosstalk
