Immunology
Our immunology research spans the gamut from basic molecular studies through to clinical trials and new patient treatments.
We are particularly strong in the areas of conventional and unconventional T-cell immunity, cancer immunotherapy, autoimmune disease, homing and trafficking of immune cells and the structure biology of antigen receptors and the ligands they recognise.
Theme lead
Area of interest
T-cell ligands and the receptors that recognise them during infection, autoimmune disease, organ transplant and cancer immunotherapy.
