His research spans three primary areas: Mycobacterium tuberculosis pathogenesis, biomolecular computation, and serine protease inhibition. He studies genetic/metabolic networks in dormant tuberculosis, DNA-based logical operations, and molecular mechanisms of protease inhibitors. Additional work includes infectious disease policy and vaccine distribution systems.
Recent publications focus on tuberculosis metabolism (2019), ATP synthesis inhibitors (2017), and novel applications of CNNs to vaccine refrigeration (2023). Earlier foundational work (2005) explores magnesium’s role in cell proliferation and an MMM model integrating membrane dynamics.
