MAIT cells represent an abundant human T cell subset, enriched in tissues. The functions of these cells range from inflammation to tissue repair and homeostasis. In this talk Professor Klenerman will discuss how this cell type achieves this range of functionality, and their role in settings such as infection and vaccination.
A light lunch light will be provided for in-person attendees at 12:30pm. Registrations essential.
Paul Klenerman Paul Klenerman trained in infectious diseases and holds the Truelove chair in the Department of Medicine at Oxford. He has worked on T cell responses in infection, especially hepatitis C. Much of the recent work in the lab focuses on emerging innate-like T cell subsets and their role in disease. |
