专业概况

In the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at IU School of Medicine, research centers on molecular mechanisms of pathogenesis, immune responsiveness, infectious diseases, cancer biology, hematopoiesis, stem cell biology and gene therapy. Current research activities include microbial pathogenesis and experimental therapeutics, with a focus on host-pathogen interactions in the extracellular niche, mechanisms of oncogenic pathogens, the role of the microbiome in human disease, and the molecular and cellular biology of obligate intracellular viral and bacterial pathogens. Investigators place a major emphasis on immunology, including studies of immune responsiveness, immune evasion by viruses and tumors, innate and adaptive immunity, antigen presentation, and B cell responses.

Leading a new medical school course in host defense, a nursing course in microbiology and immunology, and graduate-level courses on infectious microbes, host-microbe interactions and responsible conduct of research, the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at IU School of Medicine offers core graduate courses in immunology, infection and pathogenesis, neoplastic determinants and stem cell biology and advanced courses in specialty areas that reflect the research expertise of microbiology and immunology faculty. Graduate students have teaching opportunities in the nursing course.

Research by faculty within the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at IU School of Medicine centers on microbial pathogenesis, immunology, hematopoiesis, cancer biology and gene therapy. Current pathogenesis research focuses on Borrelia burgdorferi, Chlamydia trachomatis, Coxiella burnetiid, Escherichia coli, Hemophilus dacrya, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, HIV-1, Human Papillomavirus Virus, Leptospira interorgan, Toxoplasma gondii and malaria. A major effort is on developing experimental therapeutics for these pathogens.

The department has a strong emphasis in immunology. Ongoing studies include investigation of allergic and inflammatory diseases, immune signaling pathways and lymphocyte differentiation, immune evasion by viruses and tumors, autoimmune disease, innate and adaptive immunity, antigen presentation and B cell responses.
