My research interests focus on microbial pathogenesis, vaccine development and delivery, adjuvnats, and their protection mechanisms in animal models.
Peripheral nerve repair. Specifically, understanding the relationship between the immune response to nerve injury and recovery and modulating the immune response to improve functional outcome after injury.
My lab is interested in using comparative approaches to advance reproductive medicine including infectious diseases, reproductive immunology, microbiome of the reproductive system, and the effects on the early neonatal period.
Our laboratory studies antibody-mediated immune responses to the protozoan parasite, Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, a major pathogen of freshwater fish. We have additional interests in the production of recombinant membrane proteins more generally as subunit vaccines ...

Our lab studies the role of DNA repair proteins in mediating germ cell development in mammals, the spermatogonial stem cell niche, DNA mismatch repair
The main focus of my research program is to elucidate key components in enveloped viruses and their host cells that: 1] mediate viral entry into cells, 2] elicit cell immune responses, and 3] mediate ...

Immunological aspects of pregnancy; Immunogenetics; Immunity to Infectious Diseases. Primary species focus on the horse.
We are interested in the role of Tyrosine Kinases (TKs) in regulating the immune response, with the goal of using this information to manipulate immune responses. We are specifically interested in the Tec families ...
