Infection, Immunity and Inflammation Interdisciplinary Research Group (i3-IRG)
|
 |
The i3-IRG undertakes internationally-recognised research to understand the immune system. This system protects the body against infection and disease, but can also cause disease when it goes awry. Our research aims to develop new vaccines and treatments for diseases such as AIDS, arthritis, flu and cancer.
Through interdisciplinary collaborations across the School, the University and beyond, the group's focus on research and treatment strategies seeks to link high quality laboratory-based research with translational, cross-disciplinary clinical applications.
Research within i3-IRG is focused on four main themes:
• Innate Immunity
• Microbial and Viral Infection
• Cellular and Molecular Immunology
• Cancer Immunology
