Research Projects

The Greenlee-Wacker lab is interested in human phagocytes, especially neutrophils and macrophages. Our projects include:

  1. Investigating the production and function of neutrophil-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) during bacterial infections

  2. Studying whether antibody recruiting small molecules (ARMs) enhance phagocyte function (partnered with Swarts Lab at CMU) 

  3. Improving immunology education through active learning
