Applying advanced genomics and big data approaches to characterize the immune system and develop new immunotherapies
Research Focus
Our lab is a major driver in developing and applying cutting edge single-cell genomics technologies and advanced computational approaches. We apply these novel tools in animal models and human patients to uncover immune regulatory mechanisms and pathways

Our group are world leaders in developing single-cell genomic technologies and their application in immunology and medicine. Our lab pioneered the field of single cell genomics. Using these technologies, we revealed cellular localization, clonality, cell-cell interactions, signaling and regulatory circuits determining immune activity. These powerful single-cell tools enable us to uncover novel cell types, pathways and targets of immune regulation in the fields of development, cancer, metabolism, autoimmunity and neurodegenerative diseases. Together these unique technology and knowhow in diverse genome engineering and synthetic immunology enable us to develop novel immunotherapies. We are looking for talented students who want to develop the next generation of immunotherapies
