We use two model systems, Salmonella typhimurium and Francisella tularensis, to study the complex host-pathogen interactions. Ultimately we would like to understand how Salmonella persists within certain hosts for years in the face of a robust immune response and how F. tularensis, a stealth invader, can cause a rapid, lethal infection."},{"lastName":"Huang","clinicalFocus":[],"appointments":[{"appointment":"Postdoctoral Research fellow, Microbiology & Immunology"}],"primaryAppointment":"Postdoctoral Research fellow, Microbiology & Immunology","imageUrl":"http://cancer.stanford.edu/profiles/viewImage?facultyId=13753&type=small&showNoImage","displayName":"Jun Huang","firstName":"Jun","href":"http://med.stanford.edu/profiles/postdocs/researcher/Jun_Huang","researchInterest":""},{"lastName":"Parnes","clinicalFocus":[],"appointments":[{"appointment":"Emeritus Faculty, Acad Council,Medicine - Immunology & Rheumatology"},{"appointment":"Member,Stanford Cancer Institute"}],"primaryAppointment":"Emeritus Faculty, Acad Council,Medicine - Immunology & Rheumatology","imageUrl":"http://cancer.stanford.edu/profiles/viewImage?facultyId=4487&type=small&showNoImage","displayName":"Jane Parnes","firstName":"Jane","href":"http://med.stanford.edu/profiles/cancer/researcher/Jane_Parnes","researchInterest":"The lab is studying the mechanisms controlling B cell responsiveness and the balance between tolerance and autoimmunity.
