Research

My laboratory has established a research program that focuses on HIV immunology.  The program is supported by research funds from NIH, VA, and non-federal grants.  The laboratory has been pursuing a number of research projects with the common goal of understanding better HIV envelope-mediated immunity and pathogenesis in order to design more effective prophylactic and therapeutic measures against HIV.  The key projects currently active in the lab are as follows:

1)                  Use of immune complexes as a vaccine strategy to elicit effective antibody and helper CD4 T cell responses against HIV.

2)                  Evaluation of HIV neutralization by antibodies and biologic parameters influencing virus-neutralizing activities

3)                  Modulation of HIV-1 envelope antigenicity and immunogenicity by glycosylation and antibodies

4)                  HIV envelope-induced virological synapse and signaling
