I am interested in the mechanisms that underlie protective immunity and disease: the phenotypes immune cells adopt to mitigate disease, and how to detect and quantify protective immune profiles in laboratory models, domesticated animals, and in natural populations.

To make progress in my overarching goal of improving medical interventions against infectious disease, I am following three intertwined lines of research:

  1. How do immune-mediated host-parasite interactions affect parasite fitness? (protective immunity vs. parasite immune evasion)
  2. How does the immune system integrate the myriad sources of natural variation to maintain health? (wild immunology)
  3. How to design safe and more effective vaccines? (nature-proof vaccines)

More specifically, I study how parasitic helminths are affected by host immune responses as a function of parasite immune evasion and immune protective efficacy; how protective immunity is affected by variation in host sex, nutrition, age, and coinfection; and for the past few years I have been developing anti-filarial vaccines that target parasite immune modulators and thus limit the ability of these worms to evade host immune responses.

To address these questions, I combine lab-based and field-based studies. The former allow the analysis of molecular and cellular responses to tightly controlled infections, diets and age structures, whereas the latter give insight into how such responses affect population-level dynamics such as morbidity/mortality rates and disease transmission.

This work therefore bridges a number of disciplines - mainly parasitology, immunology, ecology, and computational biology - and requires (attempting at least some) integration of immunity at the molecular, cellular, organismal, and population levels.
