Bio
Research Interests: My lab focuses mainly on mucosal immunity in chronic HIV infection, with an emphasis on the gastrointestinal and reproductive tracts. Topics of interest include tissue-resident T-cells, regulatory T-cells (Treg), mucosa-associated invariant T-cells (MAIT) and the contributions of these cell types to host defense against mucosal pathogens.
