Institute for Systems Biology
"One thing that draws our research projects together is that we focus on the fundamental scientific bottlenecks that, if solved, can provide keys toward solving much larger problems. We believe in working hard, playing hard, and that our science should be fun."
James R. Heath, PhD, is president and professor of Institute for Systems Biology in Seattle.
The Heath group is made up of postdoctoral fellows, graduate students, research associates, and more.
We are always looking for talented students and postdocs.
Jim Heath and his lab members publish several papers in various journals each year.
The Heath Group uses an optical imaging lab, a clean room microfab facility, peptide/chemistry tools, and more.
The Heath Lab works on scientific bottlenecks that, if solved, can provide keys toward larger problems.
Scientists at the Institute for Systems Biology (ISB) reveal how T cells “decide” their fate in fighting infections like COVID-19, paving the way for improved treatments for infections, cancer, and autoimmune diseases.
ISB hosted a virtual event to share updates on the ongoing RECOVER study, a national NIH-funded initiative to understand and address Long COVID.
Reflecting on the past year, ISB has a lot to celebrate: groundbreaking research published in leading scientific journals, well-earned promotions, widespread media coverage, and more. Enjoy our year-in-review roundup highlighting some of the important, interesting, and impactful highlights of 2024.
