The ID Labs Infection and Immunity division provides BSL3 expertise and uses deep immunophenotyping to identify the underlying pathological mechanisms of immune cells, pathogens and molecules in various vector-borne, bacterial and viral diseases. This expertise combined to strengthen ties with NCID/NHG and LKC School of Medicine ensures a cohesive response to prepare the community for potential future disease outbreaks.
In the context of COVID-19 pandemics, the Infection and Immunity division is particularly solicited to study the immune profiles and disease patterns in the community and close-contact cases.
