Research summary

Matthew R. Olson's research focuses on immunology, particularly how immune cells such as T cells and B cells develop, differentiate, and respond during viral infections like influenza. His work examines molecular regulation of immune cell function (including gene expression changes such as histone modifications) as well as clinical immune disorders like complement-mediated diseases. This research aims to understand how the immune system coordinates responses to infection and what goes wrong in certain immune-related conditions.
