Assistant Professor
Massachusetts General Hospital
Boston, Massachusetts
I am a cross-disciplinary clinical researcher trained in infectious diseases and critical care medicine. My current research focuses on pregnancy-related infections and their effects on child health outcomes. Currently, I am studying differences in placental structure, function, and transplacental antibody transfer by maternal HIV serostatus; microbiology of maternal and neonatal sepsis; and associations between antibiotic use and antimicrobial resistance in resource-limited settings. I partner with obstetricians, pediatricians, immunologists, computational biologists, and biostatisticians to carry out multidisciplinary research on these topics in Uganda. Broadly, I am interested in understanding how maternal infections affect health outcomes in their offspring in resource-limited settings. I also practice clinical infectious diseases and critical care medicine in the inpatient setting.
