Joshua Moreau is an Assistant Professor in the Division of Oncological Sciences, Department of Dermatology, Department of Cell, Developmental & Cancer Biology, and a member of CEDAR. His laboratory seeks to explore the intersection between adaptive immune function and tissue biology. A major research focus is to understand how tissue resident lymphocytes in barrier organs, especially the skin, integrate microenvironmental signals during inflammatory disease and cancer. Combining multiomic approaches with functional immunology, this work investigates the basic biology of tissue resident lymphocytes and the role of these cells during disease pathogenesis. A long-term goal is to leverage these insights to develop new strategies for tissue specific immunotherapy. Prior to starting his lab at OHSU, Josh completed an Ph.D. in Immunology at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre and University of Toronto before moving to the University of California, San Francisco for a postdoc in tissue specific immunity with Dr. Michael Rosenblum.
