- This delegate is presenting an abstract at this event.
I am a Research Fellow in the Centre for Innate Immunity and Infectious Diseases at Monash Institute of Medical Research, Clayton. I am working to elucidate structural and mechanistic characteristics of type I interferon receptor signalling. I have identified a novel IFNbeta signaling axis mediated uniquely via its low affinity receptor which was recently published in Nature Immunology. I am a recipient of a NHMRC New Investigator Grant for 2014.
