Environment

The Turley Lab is located at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute within the Longwood Medical Area, home to Harvard Medical School and a myriad of Harvard affiliates including Harvard School of Public Health, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Children's Hospital, Joslin Diabetes Center, and Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. Situated on the 14th floor of the Dana Building, our immediate scientific community is comprised of five dynamic and interactive research teams which focus on antigen processing and presentation by dendritic cells (Turley Lab), tetraspanins and cell adhesion (Hemler Lab), innate immunity (Kobayashi Lab), short RNA biology (Novina Lab), and T cell Biology (Wucherpfennig Lab). State of the art equipment and facilities for biochemical, structural, molecular, cellular, and imaging studies are present on the floor. Members of the 14th floor meet every Wednesday afternoon for research in progress updates or journal club (Floor Meeting) and every other Friday afternoon for Social Hour. If you would like to learn more about the 14th floor, please join us for one of these events.

Members of the Turley lab are also active participants in several local seminar series including the HMS Program in Immunology Seminar Series held every Wednesday, the joint DF/HCC program in Cancer Immunology Seminar Series held every Thursday, and the Joint DFCI-BWH-JDC General Immunology Seminar Series held every Monday.

Dr. Turley is also a member of the Graduate (Ph.D.) Program in Immunology through the Division of Medical Sciences at Harvard Medical School
