Dr Jennifer Juno

Laboratory Head

Overview

Dr Jennifer Juno is a T cell immunologist with a particular interest in antiviral immunity and vaccination. Her group focuses on the role of T follicular helper cells in regulating immune responses to vaccination, as well as understanding the role of unconventional T cells in protective immunity from chronic diseases. Originally from Canada, she was awarded her PhD in 2014 from the University of Manitoba, where she studied iNKT cell dysfunction during HIV infection. Following a two year Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Public Health Agency of Canada, she moved to Melbourne to join the Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity. Jennifer now leads a dynamic team of PhD students, research assistants and junior postdoctoral researchers.
