Dr. Joanna Groom is an Australian Immunologist and Laboratory Head in the Immunology Division at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute and WEHI CSL Centenary fellow.[1] Her research focuses on how the communication and positioning of immune cells influences the immune response[2] using 3D imaging methods with transcriptional analysis.[3][4]
Groom studied at Melbourne University (BSc Hons) and at Charles Sturt University (BSc AppSci). She completed her PhD at Garvan Institute and University of NSW followed by a postdoctoral fellowship at Harvard/Massachusetts General Hospital.[1] During that time in Massachusetts, Groom found that chemokine regulation was not only critical for T cell positioning but also unintuitively for T cell priming.[5]
Groom returned to Australia as a Laboratory Head in the Immunology division at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute and WEHI CSL Centenary.[3] Groom's work combines in vivo and 3D imaging methods with transcriptional analysis to discover how cellular interactions lead to tailored protection against diverse pathogenic infections.[5]
2014 Australian Research Council Future Fellow[6]
