I am interested in immune cell interaction and antigen recognition and endocytosis - cellular processes essential for an effective immune response against infectious agents. Infectious diseases cause over 6 million deaths a year worldwide with significant number of newly emerging or highly mutating pathogens. Using techniques from the fields of immunology, cell biology and genetics, I'm studying the molecular mechanisms regulating cell-cell communication and antigen uptake.
