[1] Her research focuses on how the communication and positioning of immune cells influences the immune response[2] using 3D imaging methods with transcriptional analysis.
She completed her PhD at Garvan Institute and University of NSW followed by a postdoctoral fellowship at Harvard/Massachusetts General Hospital.
[5] Groom returned to Australia as a Laboratory Head in the Immunology division at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute and WEHI CSL Centenary.
[3] Groom's work combines in vivo and 3D imaging methods with transcriptional analysis to discover how cellular interactions lead to tailored protection against diverse pathogenic infections.
