- Postdoctoral fellow, Tufts University
I graduated from Tufts University Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences in 2024 with a PhD in Immunology. Currently, I am a postdoctoral researcher at Tufts University School of Medicine in the lab of Dr. Stephen Bunnell. I study silent cell death in immune cells (macrophages and neutrophils). My current work examines a novel role for a surface protein in preventing post-death inflammation and ensuring cell death remains silent. The elimination of these immune cells by apoptosis is crucial for the resolution of inflammation after infection. Interestingly, the apoptosis of these cells can be altered in aggressive cancers, particularly in the tumor environment. I hope that my work will have significant implications in these contexts.
