Biography

I am a Professor of Pediatric Infectious Disease and Microbiology at the University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMMC), Children’s of Mississippi. I completed my fellowship in Pediatric Infectious Disease at New York University/Langone Medical Center and Bellevue Hospital in New York, NY. I was then awarded a position in NIAID’s Transition Program in Clinical Research as an Assistant Clinical Investigator in the Laboratory for Malaria Immunology and Vaccinology. During my 5 years at the NIH, I established a truly translational research program, having investigated the immunological and pharmacological effects of HIV drugs in animal and in vitro models of malaria infection as well as through clinical studies in Lilongwe, Malawi and Rakai District, Uganda. Currently, I continues work in this vein with collaborators at NIH. In parallel to this work, I am conducting epidemiologic studies in Mississippi, performing surveillance in children for soil-transmitted helminth infections, in collaboration with the CDC. With the COVID-19 pandemic, I have initiated pediatric safety studies in schools and seroprevalence studies which have had significant impact on school re-opening guidelines. Overall, my work aims to benefit children from resource limited settings, as parasitic infections such as soil-transmitted helminths tend to occur more frequently in these settings, in parallel to my work in pediatric COVID-19, which I believe remains a neglected disease (under-researched and explored, with great biological and social impact) within our pediatric populations.
