Research summary

Majid Kazemian's research focuses on how immune cells, especially T cells and complement system proteins, are regulated at the level of gene expression and how this regulation contributes to diseases such as cancer, kidney fibrosis, autoimmunity, and viral infection. A recurring theme is the 'intrinsic' complement system—complement proteins acting inside cells rather than in blood—and how transcription factors and gene-regulatory elements shape immune cell identity and function. The lab combines molecular immunology with genomics-style approaches to study gene regulation in immune and epithelial cells.

Publication output has grown substantially over the past decade, rising from just a couple of papers per year in 2017 to a sustained pace of roughly 15 papers per year in recent years.
