Title
Senior Scientific Curator
Bio
I have been at La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology since 2006 as a Senior Curator, responsible for compiling immunology data from the scientific literature with specific emphasis on extracting information about B and T cell epitopes into an NIAID-funded database, the Immune Epitope Database (IEDB). I graduated from UCLA with a B.S. in Biochemistry, and then from UC Berkeley with a Ph.D. in Microbiology and Immunology. I did postdoctoral fellowships at UCLA and at Scripps Clinic, and then worked at Scripps as an Assistant Member in the Department of Immunology. Subsequently, I worked at Pfizer for a number of years in the Pharmacology and Virology Departments on drug development of anti-rhinoviral compounds. In addition, I have initiated an effort to submit data derived from our lab into ImmPort, a biomedical research data site also funded by NIAID.
