Natalie C. Steinel
Associate Professor
Department of Biological Sciences
Associate Director for Training
Center for Pathogen Research and Training
My research interests lie in understanding the complex cellular and molecular interactions that occur between a parasite and its host. I am particularly interested in developing threespine stickleback into a model organism for the study of vertebrate adaptive immunity.
