We study viruses of animals, focusing on those that have jumped from one host to another. The main subjects of study include the canine parvovirus, which emerged in 1978 to cause a pandemic in ...

Studying host-parasite interactions that involves disciplines like pathology, immunology, molecular biology and gastroenterology. Developing diagnostics for veterinary parasites/pathogens. Studying biodiversity of parasites of North American wildlife.
My lab tries to understand regulatory mechanisms of protein function, such as protein post-translational modifications and allosteric modulation, and to use the understanding to develop potential therapeutics for treating human diseases, including immune diseases.
My lab is currently focused on two areas of immunology, canine immune mediated disease and aging of the immune system. We are particularly interested in identifying mechanistic biomarkers to help improve, diagnosis, prognosis and ...
