Funded Activity Summary

This research focuses on the function of the NF-?B and MAP kinase biochemical pathways in immune cells. Both pathways regulate gene expression controlling the development, division, viability and function of immune cells. Consistent with these roles, impaired regulation of these pathways contributes to many immune related diseases. My goal is to utilize information learnt about these pathways and apply it to developing therapies for treating diseases afflicting the immune system.
