Research History
- Research FellowI completed research as part of the Physician Scientist Training Program, wherein I explored the ability of mast cells to take up, process, and present antigens to CD4+ T cells. I also helped to evaluate a potential test for a biomarker of basophil activation.2011 - 2014
- Graduate studentI completed research for my PhD thesis on the cell biology of Langerhans cells. I described a rhythmic motion of cellular processes, termed dSEARCH, that is specifically upregulated in response to local tissue injury and/or the release of inflammatory cytokines like IL-1 and TNF-alpha.2002 - 2006
- Undergraduate student researchI completed research for my undergraduate Honors thesis exploring the differences in immune cell subsets between Arkansas Regressor and Progressor chickens with active sarcomas. I also participated in 2 summer rotations, exploring the pathogenesis of anti-ribosomal P peptide antibodies in lupus.1998 - 2000
