Our research is at the interface between immunology, stem cells and cell therapy. We seek to understand how immune cells impede, mediate or facilitate stem cell transplantation and cell therapy. We use cellular, molecular and genetic approaches to investigate the mechanisms underlying therapeutic efficacy of such treatments in preclinical models of disease, immune dysfunction and ageing. Ultimately, this knowledge allows us to define new therapeutic approaches that improve stem cell transplantation outcomes and immune function. We have a strong interest in translating outcomes and collaborate closely with industry.
We are committed to excellence in research.
We're always interested in collaborating with bright and motivated researchers, clinicians and industry. Whether you want to research, study or partner with us to accelerate our discoveries, find out about the work we do.
