- Mucosal-associated invariant T cells (MAIT) in immune regulation
- Proteomic approaches to transplantation outcomes
- Interferon signaling in autoimmunity
Recent Publications: Her 2024-2026 studies in top immunology journals explore immune dysregulation during infections, with particular focus on lymphocyte responses and clinical correlations in COVID-19 and autoimmune patients.
