Her research interests are T cell immunology, immune regulation and muscle biology, with a major focus upon human T cell responses and immune regulation. In particular, the autoimmune conditions of childhood, including Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) and Juvenile Dermatomyositis (JDM); the mechanisms which allow survival and expansion of inflammatory T cells within the joint, the control of their production of cytokines and chemokines, and their contribution to disease. She trained in Cambridge and then London in Immunology and Rheumatology and then spent time training in science at the University of Stanford, USA, before returning to the University College London and Great Ormond Street Hospital on a Wellcome Trust Fellowship.

Dr. Elizabeth Mellins graduated from Cornell University with a degree in political science, did a post-bachelor year at MIT and received her MD from Harvard Medical School. She trained in Pediatrics at the University of Colorado and in Pediatric Rheumatology at the University of Washington. She began to focus on research in immunology and immunogenetics during her postdoctoral work at the University of Washington with Dr. Donald Pious. She had her first independent laboratory at the University of Pennsylvania and then moved to Stanford, where she is now a professor of Pediatrics and a member of the Interdisciplinary Program in Immunology. She was a member of the Cellular and Molecular Immunology NIH study section for 9 years (2 terms) and is a Distinguished Fellow of the American Association of Immunologists. She was also a founder and first chairperson of the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance.

Robert Fuhlbrigge is currently Professor and Section head for the division of Pediatric Rheumatology at the Children's Hospital Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus.
