Understanding crosstalks between Natural Killer cells and Dendritic Cells (2021–2023)

Abstract:
This project aims to investigate the interactions between two populations of immune cells: natural killer cells and dendritic cells. This proposal will advance basic knowledge in immunology by innovating in considering the heterogeneity and diversity of these two immune populations and combining interdisciplinary approaches using cutting-edge technologies. Expected outcomes from this proposal include the identification of new immunoregulatory pathways, the development of new scientific theories, and enhancement of Australia's research capacity through international collaborations and student training. This project will provide significant benefits such as the identification of biological targets for development of new biotechnologies.
