Select from the following:
Dr. Mackelprang's research combines bioinformatics, epidemiologic and statistical methods for analyzing high-throughput biological data to identify host factors involved in HIV-1 acquisition and disease pathogenesis, with the objective of elucidating targets for novel preventative and therapeutic interventions. He is the PI of an NIH R01 to evaluate changes in expression of interferon stimulated genes (ISGs) among HIV-1 infected individuals following initiation of ART and of an NIH K01 to evaluate potential mechanisms to explain associations between HLA-A2301 and increased HIV-1 viral levels. He is also co-investigator on multiple projects in which he leads analyses to integrate genome sequencing, gene expression and proteomics data with clinical, epidemiologic and immunology data.
