Welcome!

We are an interdisciplinary immunology, microbiology and parasitology lab based in the Department of Biochemistry and Microbiology at the University of Victoria, BC, Canada. 

We are interested in understanding how the inhabitants of our intestinal tract can affect the development and function of the mammalian immune system, and how this can affect susceptibility to various infectious, inflammatory, and allergic diseases.
