Seminar: Understanding the causes and conseqences of immune variability

The SYSAGE team is excited to invite you to an upcoming guest seminar titled “Understanding the causes and consequences of immune variability” by Darragh Duffy from Pasteur Institute, a leading expert in normal immune variance and its genetic and environmental causes.

About the Speaker:

Darragh Duffy leads the Translational Immunology unit at the Institut Pasteur, Paris and is co-coordinator of the LabEx Milieu Interieur project. The overall goal of his research is to better understand the fundamental mechanisms behind inter-individual differences in immune responses and apply these discoveries to relevant clinical questions. To do this they use cellular mechanistic models, population immunology cohorts, and experimental clinical studies in infection and autoimmunity. They work closely with clinical collaborators with the goal that the research findings will help to develop new patient management strategies. For fundamental questions related to understanding immune variability they apply systems immunology approaches to diverse phenotypes and integrate with genetic and environmental factors.
