Dr. Dane Parker, Center for Immunity & Inflammation, Department of Pathology, Immunology and Laboratory Medicine was recently promoted to Associate Professor and awarded grants from Rutgers Innovation-TechExpress and Rutgers Research Council.
Rutgers Awarded NIH Grant to Study How Previous Infections Affect Immune Response to Lung Disease. Researchers will examine how the body’s adaptations to viruses, fungi and parasites change its ability to combat unrelated respiratory infections. The five-year grant will support the work of immunologists William C. Gause, Amariliz Rivera and Mark Siracusa, who will examine how mice fight lung infection after exposure to various parasites, fungi and viruses. Full article in Rutgers Today.
