Huixin Xu
Instructor / Lab of Maria Lehtinen, Department of Pathology, Boston Children's Hospital

I’m an Instructor at Boston Children’s Hospital, with Dr. Maria Lehtinen. Before postdoc, I completed my PhD training at Harvard BBS program, studying microglia in Alzheimer’s disease with Dr. Dennis Selkoe, so I’ve been on the Longwood Campus for 10+ years! My current research focuses on the immune activities at the choroid plexus, which separates the blood and cerebrospinal fluid and regulates peripheral immune infiltration into the central nervous system. I’m hoping to combine my graduate and postdoctoral training in the future and start my own lab in a few years!
