Dr. Doyle’s research lab is focused on the impact of signalling downstream of the innate immune Toll/IL-1 Receptor (TIR)-super family in the maintenance of tissue homeostasis and the initiation of pathology. This family recognizes and responds to host derived danger signals and includes the IL-1 family cytokine receptors IL-1R and IL-18R. One aspect of her research is focused on studying how TIR-induced signaling regulates both inherited and acquired retinal degenerative disease, and in particular how IL-18 controls pathological neovascularisation in Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
Dr. Rathinam received his Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Madras Veterinary College, India and PhD from Michigan State University in 2009.
Dr. Sonnenberg completed his doctoral research training at the University of Pennsylvania, Perelman School of Medicine in 2011, focusing on mucosal immunology.
