Research Focus
Dr. Stefan Feske's lab at NYU focuses on understanding how T cells and B cells regulate immune responses to infections and their roles in autoimmune diseases. The research explores the mechanisms by which ion channels affect T cell function and plasma cell differentiation, using models of inflammation and genetic screening. The ultimate goal is to identify potential drug targets that can modulate these immune responses.

Career totals from OpenAlex, compared against labs that share a department. A department spans everything from one paper to tens of thousands, so bar heights are on a log scale — otherwise the largest lab would flatten every other bar to a line.
