Project description

It concerns the application of basic research equipment to enable us to identify immune receptors in different tissues and cell types through proteomics and imaging technology. This equipment will also allow us to analyse the phosphorylation status of multiple key regulators, involved in the activation and propagation of signalling cascades, and to elucidate their role in the induction of immunity.
