Scientific Focus
Current Research Interests
We are interested in developing new therapeutics and vaccines for respiratory viruses such as Influenza and Respiratory Syncytial Virus. We are particularly interested in studying the immune response in children to these viruses and how these responses could be boosted or shaped using novel vaccine adjuvants
