The Serody laboratory is focused on the migration of dendritic cells and subpopulations of T lymphocytes during graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after allogeneic stem cell transplantation and as a consequence of induction of an immune response to tumors using vaccine therapy. There are four predominant areas that we focus: Migration of T cells that lead to GVHD during stem cell transplantation: Breaking of tolerance to self proteins using dendritic cells (DCs): Blocking migration of regulatory T cells to enhance tumor vaccination: Immune response during cancer and metastasis:
