Antigen presentation in health and disease [ 2019 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Prof Jose Villadangos (Principal investigator)

Brief description The research program I will carry out during this fellowship will characterise how the immune system detects and starts responses against pathogens and cancer cells. I will describe proteins and intracellular processes required to fulfil this function, which may be harnessed to develop more effective vaccines against infections, protect critically ill patients from hospital acquired infections, prevent autoimmunity and fight cancer.
