Research Interests:Host-pathogen interactions:Interrogate innate immune responses to both bacterial and viral pathogens on microfluidic lab-on-a-chip devices. Develop methods to make quantitative, as well as temporal measurements of host intracellular signaling events at the single cell level. Use available reagents and in-house engineered microfluidic devices as building blocks to design the next generation of detection/diagnostic assays. Pharmacological Compound ScreeningSearch for pharmacological compounds capable of attenuating innate immune responses in anticipation of pathogen invasion by screening compound libraries targeted to key kinases involved in innate immunity. Proteomics:Using automated fractionation methods to prepare biological samples for subsequent Biomarker discovery. PublicationsNimisha Srivastava, J. S. Brennan, R. F. Renzi, M. Wu, S. S.
