Immunology
The immune system is integral to understanding health and disease. The immunology level on the second floor of the institute will research the development and function of the immune system. This research will provide a detailed understanding of the immune system’s role in maintaining health over an individual’s life course and identify the cause of pathologies where an inadequate immune response impairs health and tissue regeneration. This research will gain further insight of how to harness the immune system to respond to potentially injurious antigens while being tolerant towards the body’s own tissues.
