Research
Our immune system defends us against threats posed by pathogens, but it can also mistakenly attack our own bodies, leading to autoimmune disease. These conditions are a common cause of poor health. Our team’s studies of autoimmune disorders aim to understand disease mechanisms and improve both diagnostics and future treatment.
I have a particular interest in the following topics:
- Cytokine autoantibodies explaining infectious disease susceptibility
- The relationships between cancer and autoimmunity
- Sex differences in autoimmunity
I am grateful to the European Research Council (ERC), Swedish Research Council, Swedish Cancer Society, Göran Gustafsson Foundation, Wallenberg Foundation, Cornell Foundation, and others, for the support of our research.
