课题组研究方向
实验室AIM（Aging – Immunity - Metabolism）是以果蝇为研究对象，以果蝇天然免疫的调节机制为中心问题，希望阐述细胞信号转导、细胞代谢、衰老如何参与调节果蝇天然免疫应答。分子生物学、遗传学、细胞生物学（光镜与电镜水平）、免疫学、高通量组学（单细胞组学、代谢组学、蛋白质组学）相关技术是我们研究中最常用的实验方法。
我们实验室对生物学过程的内在机理感兴趣，特别是系统性调节：比如神经系统如何调节免疫系统或者反之；代谢如何调节免疫或者反之。不同组织细胞如何交流、合作：比如神经细胞跟免疫细胞合作；脂肪细胞跟免疫细胞合作。机体在应激状态下如何协调个生物学过程的合作以及各组织细胞之间的合作等等。
我们实验室利用大规模遗传学筛选获得一批参与果蝇免疫调控的候选基因以及一些与重要人类疾病相关的基因。这些基因将会帮助我们进一步阐明果蝇天然免疫的系统调节过程的作用机理。这些基因和参与的调节过程在哺乳动物（包括人）存在很高程度的保守性，所以我们的研究也可能为人类免疫相关疾病的发生与诊治提供重要的知识积累。
除此以外，实验室也致力于一些关键人类疾病的果蝇模型的建立与应用研究。
