Dr. Vukmanovic obtained his MD and PhD from Belgrade University School of Medicine in 1984 and 1991, respectively. The experimental part of the work for his PhD was performed at University College London in the laboratory of Av Mitchison on induction of apoptosis in T cells by T cell receptor engagement. Subsequently, Dr. Vukmanovic joined the laboratory of Mike Bevan at University of Washington in Seattle as senior research associate, studying T lymphocyte development in the thymus. In 1993, Dr. Vukmanovic moved to New York to become an independent investigator at the NYU School of Medicine after receiving an award from theMarkee Foundation. Dr. Vukmanovic stayed as an assistant and later associate professor of pathology for ten years and received tenure at NYU. Dr. Vukmanovic joined CRI in 2003. He is currently associate professor of pediatrics and immunology. He is the author of more than 50 peer-reviewed publications in prominent international scientific journals. The focus of Dr. Vukmanovic's research is studying development and function of T lymphocytes with the goal to manipulate the immune system in diseases requiring either enhancement (cancer, infectious diseases) or dampening (autoimmune diseases, allergies, transplantation) of the immune functions.
