Research:
My research is focused on investigating innate immunity to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection focusing on myeloid cell populations. Utilizing mouse models, single-cell RNA sequencing, and fluorescent/barcode-labeled Mtb strains, I aim to elucidate different cell phenotypes between infected and bystander populations. I also have an interest in investigating the mycobacterial genetic requirements for surviving the macrophage response.
