Professor of Medicine and Infectious Disease
North Carolina State University
Raleigh, North Carolina, United States
I have spent my career as an academic veterinary internist with a research interest in vector-transmitted intracellular pathogens. For over 25 years, I have been the co-director of the NCSU-CVM Vector-Borne Diseases Diagnostic Laboratory, principal investigator for the Intracellular Pathogens Research Laboratory and recently, Director of the NCSU Biosafety Level III Laboratory in the NCSU Comparative Medicine Institute. Historically, our research has focused on important tick-transmitted pathogens in the genera Anaplasma, Babesia, Borrelia, Ehrlichia and Rickettsia. Most recently, my research group has lead efforts to enhance the diagnostic detection of these highly fastidious bacteria in animal and human patient samples.
