Centre for Immunobiology
The Centre for Immunobiology combines cutting-edge research with top-quality education in all areas of immunology. Our research investigates the major mechanisms by which the immune system functions, with the ultimate aim of easing the burden of major immune-related public health issues. These include:
- tuberculosis and sarcoidosis
- inflammatory bowel disease and enteropathies of the developing world
- liver diseases such as hepatitis C, hepatitis B, and NAFLD
- the immune response to major trauma
- platelet-related diseases
- the immune system in aging
- squamous cell carcinoma
