Research Profile

Section Affiliation: Infections and Immunity

Research Interest:

I am a full-time clinical microbiology fellow at the University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. I recently completed my PhD training at the University of Toronto where I investigated a double stranded RNA virus, Leishmania RNA Virus-1 (LRV-1) in the pathogenesis of American Tegumentary Leishmaniasis. My main research interests include imported viral infections, diagnostic and molecular microbiology.
