About our research group/lab
The research is focused on understanding molecular immunological mechanisms driving arthritis.
The lab focuses on the role and modulation of lymphocytes in the development of chronic inflammatory autoimmune-mediated diseases with focus on the IL-23/Th17 immune pathway and the role of T cell cytokines, receptors, signaling pathways in the development of chronic inflammatory autoimmune-mediated diseases.
To gain insight into these processes, we use material from cohorts and trials conducted in the department of Rheumatology.
