Project: How do lymph nodes facilitate cancer metastasis?
Mueller Group
This project will examine the bi-directional interactions between metastatic tumour cells and the lymphoid organs, in order to define how cancer impacts tissue functions, and identify mechanisms to restrict tumour growth and improve disease outcomes.

Research in the Mueller group is focused on examining immune responses and nervous system interactions during acute and chronic viral infections and in cancer. We are seeking a fundamental understanding of biology and new treatments for disease. We are using state-of-the-art methods, including advanced microscopy, spectral flow cytometry, single cell sequencing and bioinformatics.
