Research summary
AI-generated

Wenxia Jiang's publications span immunology and biomedical science, with a notable focus on how B cells (immune cells that make antibodies) respond during infection, allergy, and vaccination, including work on germinal center reactions and signaling pathways such as PTEN and SREBP. Other work touches on gut bacteria and their links to brain and mood, fungal biology, and vaccine adjuvant design. The record reflects contributions across several loosely connected topics rather than a single narrow specialty.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
