As an RNA biologist-turned-immunologist, my lab studies the role of RNA processing in macrophage activation and antibacterial immunity. My lab is a vibrant, supportive and collaborative space that values diversity, creativity, and hard work. My name is Kristin Patrick, Ph.D. I am currently an Associate Professor in the Department of [READ MORE]
The following interview was conducted by Signals+ Editor Di Yu, Ph.D. The Journal of Experimental Medicine (JEM) recently published the study by Benjamin J. Broomfield et. al. showing early, short-term inhibition of IFN-I optimizes TSCM cell differentiation. Broomfield is a Ph.D. candidate in the Joanna Groom lab at WEHI. Highlights of [READ MORE]
My team investigates the impacts of interferon hyperactivity and immune dysregulation in Down syndrome. We are testing the hypothesis that immune dysregulation drives many of the clinical and developmental hallmarks of Down syndrome. There is now a vibrant community of immunologists studying Down syndrome, and I believe that attending the [READ MORE]
