Julie Jameson

Assistant Professor of Biological Sciences


Office: SCI1 317A

Julie Jameson

Dr. Julie Jameson received her Ph. D in Immunology and Virology at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center in Worchester, Massachusetts. She joined the Biology faculty at CSUSM in Fall 2012, after being Assistant Professor at The Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla. The research in her laboratory focuses on the function of T cells in infection and tissue repair. Recent studies in her laboratory have shown that obesity and type 2 diabetes impair T cell function in the murine skin resulting in wound healing complications. Now the laboratory is investigating how this devastating disease impacts the ability of T cells to fight infection and heal wounds in patients.  The Jameson laboratory embraces translational research by taking findings from basic science studies into the clinic for investigation.
