Understanding the signals that regulate immune function.
The Farrar Lab seeks to understand how the immune system sends and receives information that guides its response to infection. We study a variety of external signaling systems ranging from classical cytokines to neurotransmitters. Our goal is to understand how these complex signals integrate to direct immune cell responses to pathogenic organisms.
