Research Activities
My research focus is on HIV persistence during long term suppressive combination antiretroviral therapy. Specifically the quantification of viral reservoirs and understanding mechanisms of T-cell homeostasis during HIV infection. I also have a broad interest in the immunopathogenesis of other chronic infections.Australian and New Zealand Society for Immunology Social Media Manager.
