It is focused on the cellular mechanisms behind immune dysfunction during aging and in pathologies like cancer to generate new strategies for immunotherapy. The laboratory also collaborates with other groups in the developing of new biotechnological solutions for improvements in the animal production industry, particularly in salmon cultures.
