Abstract

Antibodies are a vital component of the immune response required for protection and control of infectious diseases. My research program will determine how antibodies contribute to protection and control of some of the world’s most deadly infectious pathogens (COVID-19, Influenza, Malaria and Mycobacterium Tuberculosis) in order to develop improved antibody-based vaccines, therapies and diagnostic tools.
