Immunology has wide spanning implications in treating inflammation-based disease and in maintaining human health. At UConn Health, we are at the forefront of studying the basis of immunity to pathogens and cancer while controlling inflammatory responses. We’re using innovative approaches and novel tools to aid vaccine and immunotherapy development, and formulate new methods to diagnose and treat autoimmune disease.
