Dr. Jiang Zhang completed her doctoral training at the Ecole Normale Superieure de Lyon under the guidance of Dr. Thierry Walzer, with a primary focus on the transcriptional regulation of innate immune cells, especially natural killer cells (NKs). Currently, Dr. Zhang is a research fellow working under the mentorship of Dr. Thomas Kupper at Harvard University and Brigham and Women's Hospital. Her research focuses on how the neuron system interacts with the immune cells within the skin, with the ultimate goal of leveraging this information to design more effective and novel vaccines by enhancing T-cell functionalities.
