Biography

Andrew Philip Sage is a Research Fellow at the University of Cambridge, focusing on immune regulation and cardiovascular disease. His research investigates how subsets of B cells regulate the development of atherosclerosis and the mechanisms through which immune therapies can slow or stabilize disease progression. He explores the complex interactions within the immune system, particularly the roles of B cells, which have historically been viewed as contributing negatively to atherosclerosis but are now recognized for their protective, anti-atherogenic roles. Sage aims to uncover the diversity of B cell subsets and their functions in order to identify novel pathways for treatment modifications in heart disease and stroke. His work has the potential to reveal important links between autoimmune diseases and cardiovascular risk, thereby advancing targeted therapies for these conditions.
