Advanced immunological, cell and molecular biological methods will be used to address autoimmune pathogenesis in vitro and in vivo to promote clinical translation of novel treatments . Essential methods are flow cytometry, single-cell studies, R-based data analysis, and tissue studies with spatial and multiplex techniques.
