Scientific Interest and Avenues for Collaboration My research interests are focused on developing applications of imaging flow cytometry (IFC), with special attention to cell signaling. My recent focus has been in the effect of chemotherapies on transcription factor pathways in immunophenotypically-defined T cell populations. I am also interested in measuring cellular communication via exosome signaling using IFC.
