His lab studies inflammation, mitochondrial stress responses, tumor immunology, and obesity-associated liver disorders.  

Lab Highlights

Macrophages in fatty liver

Obesity-associated chronic liver diseases

Long-term obesity dismantles macrophage efferocytosis to license chronic liver inflammation and NASH development

Mitochondrial

Mitochondrial stress response

Mitochondria serve as a signalling hub that controls immune responses
