Laboratory

Research

My research interest has focused on immunology of tuberculosis. Specifically I have looked at mechanisms of killing of tuberculosis in macrophages. In addition, I am working on projects including antigen processing in antigen presenting cells from in HIV+ donors. Also, I have a project looking at heat shock proteins a vaccine delivery vehicle.
