Associate Professor Tatyana Chtanova is the head of the Innate and Tumour Immunology laboratory, School of Biotechnology and Biomolecular Sciences, ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç Sydney.  After undergraduate studies at the University of New South Wales, Tatyana was awarded her PhD in 2005 for her thesis work on specific gene expression signatures for novel T cell subsets, performed at the Garvan Institute.
Following her PhD, Tatyana was awarded the Human Frontier Science Program Fellowship to train at the University of California, Berkeley. During her fellowship she gained expertise in intravital microscopy and applied it to uncover a unique immunological response to inflammation called neutrophil swarming and a novel mechanism of immune evasion by pathogens.
Tatyana’s main research interest is in developing unique approaches such as two-photon microscopy and in situ photoconversion to understand fundamental immunological processes including infection, wound repair and cancer. The overall goal of Tatyana’s research program is to harness inflammation to develop new immunotherapy for cancer and promote wound healing.
