William E. Paul Lecture

This annual lecture, begun in 2016 and part of the Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series, honors the legacy of Dr. William E. Paul. Dr. Paul was the leader of the NIH immunology community and his career is without parallel in the field of immunology.

The Cooper laboratory currently studies the evolution of adaptive immunity, primarily in jawless vertebrate models (lampreys and hagfish), and explores the use of lamprey monoclonal antibodies for diagnosis of infectious diseases and cancers in humans.
