Current Research: Work in our lab has focused on
the immunobiology of Trypanosoma cruzi
infection in mice. This infection, causing Chagas'
disease in humans, results in chronic cardiomyopathy,
likely of immune origin. Examination of immune
mechanisms, and the parasite antigens which elicit
them, has been the major activity in our lab.
Interest in differentiating immune responses that
are protective from those involved in disease
pathology has led to examination of the parasite's
intracellular reproductive cycle, in vitro,
and the ability of immune cells to effect the
progression of this cycle. |
