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 treatment of disease. For example, we recently found Vitamin D levels in dogs with immune-mediated disease are associated with survival.
