Kort presentation
Jag är professor i Experimentell immunologi vid Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi. Min forskning syftar till att förstå mekanismerna bakom hur antikroppar kan upp- eller nedreglera immunsvaret. Detta involverar forskning om B-lymfocyter, follikulära dendritiska eller (FDC), komplement och Fc-receptorer. I laboratoriet arbetar för närvarande två postdoktorer och en forskningsingenjör.
