Research summary


The immune system’s job is to protect the body from harmful substances, germs and cell changes. But sometimes, the immune system is unable to respond to threats effectively, leaving people susceptible to severe diseases for which there may be few treatments.

Dr. Morgan Craig, Canada Research Chair in Computational Immunology, has developed a state-of-the-art platform that uses computational immunology, virtual patient cohorts, and virtual clinical trials to shed light on why immune responses vary and to discover how to leverage these differences to provide patients with better care. Ultimately, she and her research team aim to transform our understanding of immunological variability by providing a robust framework for refining diagnostics, accelerating drug development, and personalizing care.
