Funded Activity Summary

Billions of cells are destined to die everyday as a part of normal development and tissue homeostasis. A failure to clear dying cells rapidly and efficiently can lead to chronic inflammation, autoimmunity and developmental defects. This research project aims to investigate how the immune system detects the presence of dying cells and removes them efficiently.
