Researchers: Dr Amanda Gavin (Principal investigator)

Brief description The long-term goal of this project is to understand the role of NOD proteins in the T cell branch of the immune system. Distorted T cell responses can lead to over-activation and autoimmunity, or host susceptibility to microbial infection. This project aims to provide a deeper understanding of NOD proteins in chronic inflammatory diseases like Crohn’s disease, where altered NOD signaling may generate intrinsic T cell defects, in addition to altered microbial sensing and host protection by the innate immune system.
