“AAI 2022: Epithelial Immunity” Featuring Dr. Shruti Naik

Dr. Shruti Naik is an Assistant Professor of Biological Sciences at New York University Langone Medical Center. She studies immunity in the epithelial tissues that line our body to understand how environmental stimuli collaborate with genetic factors to influence health and drive disease at these interfaces. She discusses the work she’s presenting at the American Association of Immunologists’ annual meeting, IMMUNOLOGY2022™, on trained immunity and immune-epithelial crosstalk in tissue repair.
