I am interested in host pathogen interactions in human retrovirus infections, including HIV-1 and human endogenous retroviruses.
I am interested in the microbiome and how it impacts efficacy of immunotherapy and radiation. I am also studying prostate SBRT.
Clinical Trials: Novel hemostatic therapies for bleeding; novel immunosuppressive therapies for IMHA; interventional trials for sepsis management. Laboratory Research: Biomarkers in emergency and critical care, novel assays for diagnosis and management of hemorrhage and ...
