The Microchimerism,
Human Health &
Evolution Project

The project aims to cultivate and revitalize the microchimerism community.

Mission

Our main objective is to advance the fundamental understanding of microchimerism and its implications for human health and disease. We plan to achieve this by developing and applying phenotyping techniques for both microchimeric cells and the host immune system. This approach will enable us to effectively characterize microchimerism in diverse tissue types and contexts, including healthy pregnancies in mice and humans, as well as disease states such as autoimmune diseases and pregnancy complications.
