VINES-BILL LAB

Michael

Michael is a second year PhD student. He is interested in uderstanding vesicle trafficking in the cell and the molecular mediators that promote differential distribution of receptors to distinct vesicle populations. 

Dalilia

Dalilia is a sophomore who joined the lab in June 2025. Dalilia is interested in understanding how ZAP-70 is regulated during signaling through the TCR. 

Cesar

Cesar started working in the lab during the COVID-19 pandemic, and quickly became a valuable member of the lab. During that time he worked on projects funded by Gilead labs and by the NIH. This year he has initiated studies towards earning  an MS in Biomedical sciences. As a result he has recently co-authored a manuscript on the migration of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells across the blood brain barrier.  He found that CCR7 promotes migration via proteins called beta 2 integrins. Cesar is applying to graduate PhD Programs, that he plans to attend once he earns his Master's degree. 

Sai

Daniel is working to understand how G protein-coupled receptor kinases contribute to internalization of CCR7 in T-cells.
