About this research group

This group studies chemical biology in which one focus is on the targeting of Dendritic Cells in vivo by exploiting an poly (lactic-glycolic acid) PLGA nano bead platform to develop new synthetic vaccines. Another focus is on developing synthetic Dendritic Cells to directly activate T cells.

Aims

Much emphasis is paid to get molecular and structural insight in the immunological -synapse between dendritic cells and T cells, which is studied by a variety of techniques.
