He has an active clinical practice in solid organ transplantation, where he encounters and addresses immune system issues including cellular and humoral rejection, opportunistic infections, chronic viral disease, autoimmune organ failure, and immunosuppression medication side effects. He has had over 60 trainees in his lab, and is actively involved in teaching and mentoring.
