Projects
Currently developing projects in my new laboratory, the Unité Immunobiologie des cellules dendritiques, with the guidance of Dr. Matthew Albert. Thus far, ideas for projects involve HCV pathogenesis and the type 1 interferon response, type 1 interferon and Chikungunya virus, as well as mouse models of inflammatory T cell trafficking.
