Program accomplishments

  • VIRAL IMMUNOLOGYTHE OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROGRAM IS TO CONDUCT RESEARCH INTO THE MECHANISMS BY WHICH THE IMMUNE SYSTEM PROTECTS AGAINST VIRAL INFECTIONS. THIS RESEARCH WILL HELP US TO DEVELOP BETTER VACCINES AND THERAPEUTIC AGENTS FOR VIRAL INFECTIONS. THIS PROGRAM INCLUDES PRE-CLINICAL WORK ON A NOVEL UNIVERSAL INFLUENZA VACCINE, THE MECHANISM BY WHICH IT PROTECTS AGAINST MULTIPLE STRAINS OF INFLUENZA AND WHETHER THE VACCINE PROTECTS AGAINST SECONDARY BACTERIAL INFECTIONS OFTEN INCREASE MORTALITY FROM INFLUENZA. WE ARE ALSO INVESTIGATING NOVEL VACCINE ADJUVANTS AND WHY IMMUNE RESPONSES TO CERTAIN VACCINES WANE OVER TIME. DIABETESTHE GOAL OF THIS PROGRAM IS TO IDENTIFY UNIQUE EVENTS AND MOLECULAR PATHWAYS THAT CAN TRIGGER THE AUTOREACTIVE T CELLS TO CAUSE DESTRUCTION OF THE PANCREATIC ISLETS IN TYPE 1 DIABETES. THE ROLE OF EXOSOMES AND NOVEL SELF-ANTIGENS ENCODED BY ENDOGENOUS RETROVIRUSES IS A MAJOR FOCUS OF THIS STUDY. OUR FUNDING FOR THESE PROGRAMS LAPSED IN 2022 AND WE HAD TO SUBLEASE SOME OF OUR OFFICE AND LABORATORY SPACE, TO A COMPANY DEVELOPING NOVEL CANCER DRUGS. WE WERE ABLE TO CONTINUE WORKING ON OUR PROGRAMS USING EXISTING RESOURCES, WHILE ATTEMPTING TO SECURE NEW GRANT FUNDING. WE WERE SUCCESSFUL IN OBTAINING FUNDING; HOWEVER, THE NEW GRANT FUNDING DID NOT START UNTIL MARCH 2023.
