Phenotypic & functional profiling of immune cells
Investigating the phenotypic and functional profiling of immune cells represents a fundamental endeavour in immunological research, offering valuable insights into the intricate orchestration of immune responses.
​
​Here in the Gavins lab, we are pushing the boundaries of immunological research by harnessing cutting-edge techniques to investigate the phenotypic and functional profiling of immune cells. Leveraging advanced technologies such as flow cytometry, high-content multiplexed imaging, and single-cell RNA sequencing, we meticulously map the diverse immune cell landscape in complex biological systems. By analysing key molecules like cytokines, chemokines, and surface receptors, we aim to uncover phenotypic signatures that define distinct immune cell subsets and activation states.
​
Our integrative approach combines high-dimensional data from phenotypic and functional profiling to unravel the intricate interplay between immune cell populations. These insights provide a deeper understanding of the mechanisms driving immune responses in both health and disease. Beyond fundamental discovery, our work is focused on translation, identifying novel therapeutic targets, developing innovative immunotherapies, and advancing diagnostic precision.

By illuminating the functional landscapes of immune cells, we aim to pioneer new pathways in precision medicine and personalised immunomodulation, paving the way for breakthroughs in treating immune-related diseases.
