Biography :

My principal effort at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School is in basic research, with a focus on transplantation immunobiology. As a surgeon-scientist, I aim to be at the forefront in the development of scientific advances that translate into improved health of transplant recipients. I have come to appreciate the need for strategies to minimize the toxicity of immunosuppression while improving its efficacy. I am particularly interested in developing of targeted immunomodulatory agents in solid organ transplantation. We sought to design strategies that targeted lymph node by applying nanotechnology.
