Research

My work focuses on the interplay between infection and autoimmunity. In particular, I am investigating the potential of products derived from Schistosoma mansoni to skew or modulate immune activity in ways that might be relevant in the prevention or treatment of type 1 diabetes or other autoimmune diseases.
