Adriana Larregina, MD, PhD

Summary

Dr. Larregina's research interests include the study of genetic vaccines and immuno-dermatology. Sub-projects within her lab are examining: 1) generation of dendritic cell (DC) vaccines for tumors and infectious diseases; 2) skin genetic immunization; 3) DC migration out of skin and repopulation by DC precursors; and 4) modulation of specific immune responses targeting skin antigen presenting cells, and understanding the role of the skin microenvironment in modulating the function of resident DC.
