What Will I Work On?

Potential projects in the Ziegler lab may focus on:

• The role of epithelial cytokines (TSLP, IL-25, and IL-33) in regulating immunity and inflammation at mucosal surfaces.
• The role of TSLP in cancer, with a focus on breast cancer and melanoma.
• The development and function of regulatory T cells in tissue sites (e.g., skin or lung). 
• The role of TGFb, and its negative regulator c-Ski, in inflammatory responses, including viral infection and cancer.
