In this final episode of the series, we meet Dr Emily Thornton @emilyethornton from the Human Immunology Unit. We explore her path into mucosal immunology, and how new research is revealing the mechanisms behind how our immune system senses and scans the gut microbiome. In a recent paper they identify an overlooked cell type that help the gut immune cells to interpret the environment and respond to microbes.
