01.2011 - 01.2013
  • Productively collaborated with GlaxoSmithKline to investigate the effects of a small molecule inhibitor of Bromodomain and ExtraTerminal domain containing (BET) proteins in the pro-inflammatory functions of T cells. Demonstrated that inhibition of BET protein function results in a long-term suppression of the ability of autoreactive T cells to induce neuroinflammation in murine models of Multiple Sclerosis.
