Human cancer cells undergoing TRAIL-induced cell death.

Overview

The overarching goal of the Walczak Laboratory is to provide a better understanding of the physiological interplay between cell death, ubiquitin and inflammation in the generation of immunity and how this functional interplay, on the one hand, controls disease but, on the other, when perturbed can instead become causative for pathologies such as cancer, autoimmune diseases or those that are induced as a consequence of an infection.
