Biography
I am a researcher and anatomic pathologist, with research interest at the intersection of mucosal immune responses and innovative vaccine delivery systems. With current focus on mucoadhesive vaccine delivery systems, I investigate how these novel technologies may enhance mucosal vaccine antigen delivery and induction of superior mucosal immune responses comparable to the invasive methods of vaccine administration in animals. Driven by a commitment to advancing global health, myself and my team work to bridge the gap between research and clinical applications, paving the way for next-generation vaccines that will combat infectious diseases of livestock with precision and effectiveness.
