Irvine, California, United States
Lisa Wagar, PhD is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physiology & Biophysics at the University of California Irvine. The foundation of her lab's research is investigating how the specialized microenvironment and cell-cell interactions that occur within human lymphoid tissues orchestrate, sustain, and conclude antigen-specific adaptive immune responses. Dr. Wagar's group uses an immune organoid model derived from primary human lymphoid tissues to study how a variety of host factors and antigen factors contribute to inter-individual differences in vaccine responses.
