Cancer, Immunology and Host Response
The immune system plays a critical role in a wide range of clinical conditions, including allergic and autoimmune disease, cancer, transplantation and vaccination. Research in the area of pediatric immunology and host response uniquely focuses on the development of the complex network of immune cells in the newborn and the mechanisms that promote the elimination of infection while avoiding pathologic self-reactivity. Investigations range from basic science studies that dissect essential genetic programs to clinical studies that test new approaches to the diagnosis and treatment of immunologically mediated diseases.
Children's Hospital of Wisconsin and Midwest Athletes Against Childhood Cancer have long shared a common vision of finding cures for childhood cancer and related blood disorders. Today, the MACC Fund Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders outpatient clinic at Children's Hospital provides bench to bedside resources to transform cancer and blood disorder research for the next generation of children.
