I am research scientist, my studies combine advanced approaches in cellular immunology and genomics to investigate the dynamic genetic regulation and function of pathogenic T and B cells from early to advanced autoimmunity in comparison to those following pathogen challenge. The interplay between T and B cells in adaptive immunity is essential for antigen-specific antibodies during infections and vaccinations. Similar T-B cell interactions likely lead to pathogenic antibodies in autoimmunity. Mounting evidence suggests that in autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus, CD4+ T cells drive autoantibody-producing B cells via the germinal center (GC) reaction and initiate autoreactive B cell memory and long-lived plasma cells.
