Our Research Goals

Our goal is to provide a unified theory of how immune mechanisms and the glial network drive neurologic disorders and autoimmunity and to translate these laboratory discoveries into new therapies.

Open Questions

What role do glial cells play in autoimmunity? How does cellular metabolism regulate immune potential? Do lipids shape the immune response? How do peripheral immune cells, glial cells, and neurons communicate? Do you want to discover how to harness the power of the body’s immune system to help develop new treatments for multiple sclerosis, stroke, brain tumors, and many other illnesses?

Transdisciplinary Research

We take a transdisciplinary approach in our research endeavors using immunologic, genomic, proteomic, and metabolomic approaches to study neuroinflammation.

Research Programs

Our research comprises basic and translational programs aiming to elucidate the molecular immunometabolic mechanisms of intracellular communication that drive neurologic disorders (ranging from autoimmune and degenerative diseases to cancer).

Dear students/aspiring post-docs - please STOP sending GENERIC application/cover letters. They are pointless. Know the PI's name (!), scientific focus, and explain WHY you want to join ... see some great tips from @Dr_Meming’s Twitter thread https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1549520281198288897.html

If anyone out there is interested, here's the "cheat sheet" that I've been using in all of my classes to teach students how to read academic articles without reading every word. This was given to me in grad school, and I've been using it with grad/undergrads ever since.
