Research summary
AI-generated

Ankita Saini's research focuses on immunology, particularly how immune cells like macrophages and dendritic cells (which help detect and respond to infections) are regulated, including during infections such as tuberculosis. Their work also touches on epigenetics (how gene activity is controlled without changing DNA sequence) and connections between gut microbes and mental health. This research could interest students curious about immune cell biology, infectious disease, or the broader links between the body's microbiome and health.
