Professor Mads Gyrd-Hansen

We study molecular mechanisms governing inflammatory signalling and other host-defence processes during innate immune responses. Through this, we aim to understand the molecular events that on one hand protect against pathogens, but that also contribute to chronic inflammation and tumour development, growth and metastasis. A central focus of the lab is to elucidate the role and regulation of ubiquitin modifications in myeloid cells in these processes.
