Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Dr. Jessica Pacia investigates immune cell function and interactions, with a focus on T-cell and B-cell immunology, at John Brown University. Her work explores the interplay between the reproductive system, pregnancy, and immune responses, with recent studies examining the role of estrogen signaling in CD8 T cell-mediated antiviral responses. Pacia's research also delves into the impact of TGF-ß signaling on mucosal CD8 resident memory T cell differentiation and the molecular heterogeneity of antiviral resident memory CD8 T cells in the female reproductive tract. Additionally, she explores the influence of the gut microbiota on health, including the effects of probiotics and fermented foods, and has investigated how host-adapted commensal fungi drive type 2 immunity. A significant aspect of her research involves establishing in vitro models, such as vaginal organoid systems, to study local resident memory T cell differentiation.
