Biography

The overarching goal of the Jamieson lab is to discover mechanisms of host disease tolerance. This is the concept that in order to survive an infection the host must not only control the infection, but mitigate the impact and potential damage to essential organs. We use models of cutaneous injury and respiratory infections to discover host directed therapeutics for complex and deadly diseases.
