Research summary
AI-generated

Ashley Zani's research falls broadly within immunology and microbiology, with topics touching on interferon and immune responses, viral infections such as SARS-CoV-2 and influenza, and inflammasome-related immune disorders. Published work also includes studies on cellular cancer vaccines and bacterial stress responses, suggesting a range of projects spanning infectious disease immunology and cancer immunotherapy. This suggests a lab that studies how the immune system responds to pathogens and disease, potentially useful for students interested in host-pathogen interactions or immune-based therapies.
