About the Lab:

The Kambayashi lab focuses on signal transduction pathways employed by cells involved in fundamental immunological processes and in immune-related disorders. The primary aim is to understand the mechanistic underpinnings of these processes so that novel targets can be identified for therapeutic intervention or for diagnostic/prognostic value. Dr. Kambayashi recently joined the skin biology with his work on iImmune-mediated control of sebum secretion by the skin.
