Funded Activity Summary

Metabolite- and lipid-based immunity. This project aims to investigate T-cell immunity to lipids and metabolites. The immune system protects hosts from pathogens, and uses T-cells to recognise infected host cells. However, many facets of T-cell function are not understood. This project will unearth the evolutionary and molecular correlates of lipid- and metabolite-based immunity across diverse species. This will provide basic fundamental insights and conceptual advances into a poorly understood, but crucial, component of the immune system.
