Summary

My research focuses on understanding how immune cells integrate signals encountered in the environment to drive functional outcomes at the molecular and epigenetic level in both health and disease. The tumor microenvironment plays important roles in limiting T cell function and anti-tumor immunity. Our lab is exploring how the tumor microenvironment drives T cell dysfunction by altering the T cell epigenome and transcriptome. We use cutting-edge Next-generation sequencing technologies to interrogate the epigenome of T cells in murine models and patient samples. We aim to engineer the T cell epigenome to create better T cell therapies for cancer.
