UW Immunology

The Department of Immunology is a biomedical research department at the University of Washington School of Medicine located in Seattle, Washington.

Our mission is to advance understanding of the function of the immune system in order to enhance our ability to fight infectious disease, cancer, and autoimmune disease. Basic research of all aspects of immunology is critical to this mission, as well as translational research to link our findings to the development of new therapies.

We hold diversity and inclusiveness as core values in our department and emphasize their importance throughout our research, education, and practice. We strive to create a climate that fosters belonging, respect, and value for all within our scientific community.
