Research Interests

After 30 years of NIH Funding and basic and clinical research in medical mycology and infectious diseases, I now confine myself to clinical duties on the infectious disease clinical inpatient and outpatient services. I continue to learn and be amazed and stimulated by interactions with medical students, residents, and fellows. Hopefully my 40 years of experience plays some role in their education and the welfare of our patients.
