Humoral immune regulation, particularly in the following areas:
1. Molecular mechanisms governing cell-cell interactions in Germinal center reaction;
2. How cell fate determination in Germinal centers is controlled by the qualitative and quantitative parameters of cell-cell interactions;
3. Molecular mechanisms regulating the spatial-temporal organization of B cell follicles and germinal centers;
4. How the three layers of regulations described above is coordinated to ensured efficient humoral immune response but at the same time prevent autoimmunity;
5. Molecular mechanisms regulating differentiation and maintenance of memory B cells and long-lived plasma cells;
6. Regulation of immune response by the central nervous system.
We are also interested in studying:
7. Sexual dimorphism in immune response;
8. Differentiation of tissue resident CD8 T cells;
9. Microglia biology.
