Research Interests
I have always been interested in the field of immunology, particularly the function of T and B lymphocytes. Currently, I am interested in how infection with B-cell tropic viruses, such as Epstein-Barr Virus, can dysregulate the immune system to initiate and sustain Multiple Sclerosis.
