April's thesis work is published in EMBO ( here). April shows for the first time that a live infection during pregnancy alters fetal stem cell development, severely retarding the ability of a subset of developmentally restricted stem cells to produce various immune cells following maternal T. gondii...

As of today I will serve as the Chair of MCB department.

Cumulative work from two graduate students, Angel Kongsomboonvech and Laura Garcia-Lopez, in which genetic mapping was employed to understand the parasite strain differences in eliciting CD8 T cell IFNg production to parasite infected cells. Over 120 parasite strains were screened, and ROP16 - a...

April, now Dr. Apostol, was co-advised by me and Dr. Beaudin, and her thesis project is super interesting on how T. gondii infection during pregnancy impacts fetal stem cell development. Congratulation April, well done!
