MIEP is studying CD4+ T cell heterogeneity, plasticity and differentiation by using mathematical and computational modeling in combination with immunology experimentation and single cell analyses.
MIEP’s translational medicine research integrates computational modeling with novel experimental approaches in an innovative product development pipeline leading to the characterization of novel mechanisms of immune modulation and development of new therapies.
