Our Research
In the Spitzer Lab, we are passionate about developing better immune-based treatments for cancer and other diseases informed by fundamental scientific discovery.

Our studies focus on understanding how the immune system works and how it fails in certain circumstances. We use systems immunology approaches to understand how the immune system functions. Our studies generally include a mix of experimental and computational biology to tackle these complex questions. We use single-cell approaches to understand how immune cells change their behavior and regulate one another during immune responses. This information helps us to design better therapies, to understand which patients are likely to benefit, and to identify the next new important questions to keep the cycle going. Equally important, we take pride in training and enabling the next generation of scientific leaders.
