Researcher Profile

My research interest covers diarrheal and infectious diseases, particularly those that are common in children in developing countries. I am also interested in basic and applied immunology of infectious diseases. I am working on acute, persistent and chronic diarrhea. My other interests are typhoid fever and respiratory tract infection.
