Biography

The Stadtmueller Lab aims to broaden the understanding of immune system proteins and their interactions with microbes to elucidate functional outcomes. Specifically, the lab investigates the assembly, structure, and functions of mucosal antibodies to understand the remarkable complexes that protect vertebrates against external threats, such as pathogens. The lab employs various techniques, including antibody engineering, cryoelectron microscopy, X-ray crystallography, and surface plasmon resonance fluorescence microscopy, to harness biophysical data detailing the structures and mechanisms of mucosal antibodies and their interactions with bacterial and viral antigens. The projects of the Stadtmueller Lab contribute to expanding knowledge on host-microbe co-evolution, antibody structure-function relationships, and the therapeutic potential of antibodies.
