A team in pursuit of answers

We are a young enterprise — our center launched in 2022 — but we have recruited extremely bright and creative explorers of immunology. In the months ahead, we will add more resident scientists to our team.

We also embrace a collaborative mindset. Our frontline colleagues in investigation are the Augusta University affiliated scientists below. In addition, IMMCG has formed a Scientific Advisory Board of leaders in the field. Learn more about our research profile.
