Th17 cell plasticity in response to environmental stimuli

Research in my lab focuses on two main areas. Firstly we are interested in peripheral T cell responses and plasticity of effector T cells (particularly Th17 cells). In addition we are trying to elucidate physiological roles for the aryl hydrocarbon receptor in the immune system.
