Research

Dr. Anthony’s primary research interests are in the T cell mediated immune mechanisms of human disease. Current work focuses on hepatitis C virus specific CD4 and CD8 T cell immunity in the infected host and how this immunity is related to the clinical manifestations and disease progression, as well as response to therapy. Experiments are aimed at exploring the relationship between the control or resolution of hepatitis C related diseases and the frequency, cytokine producing quality, and the fine antigen specificity of the cellular immune response in infected host.

From this brief description it is evident that members of our faculty are internationally recognized for their work in cartilage homeostasis and degradation, immunogenetics, animal models of RA and OA, and T cell biology.
