Overview | Research | Grants/Awards | Teaching | Publications

Dr. Daley studies the cellular events that follow injury. Her research focuses on the characteristics and functions of macrophages that accumulate at the site of tissue injury. These macrophages are essential to the repair process.

Biography

Dr. Jean Daley is a graduate of Bowdoin College and Tufts University School of Medicine. She completed a residency in General Surgery and a Research Fellowship in Surgery at Brown University and Rhode Island Hospital. She is presently Assistant Professor of Surgery (Research). Her research focuses on the phenotypic and functional characteristics of macrophages in a mouse model of tissue injury.

Research Description

Laboratory studies focus on the phenotypic and functional profiles of wound macrophages. We have described temporal changes in populations of wound macrophages at the site of tissue injury, and have demonstrated that changes in wound macrophage populations are independent of IL-4 and IL-13. Ongoing studies focus on the heterogeneity of macrophage populations in the wound, including the origins and functional consequences of macrophage diversity in the wound environment.
