  • Harry Taylor, PhD
    Assistant Professor
    Research Interests:

    My laboratory seeks to advance our understanding of the interplay between the host immune response and metabolic status in the context of both acute and chronic viral infections (e.g., HIV-1 and SARS-CoV-2). Our efforts are aimed at informing strategies with the ultimate goal of reducing the burden of these viral infections in high-risk populations.

  • Kathryn Tindall, MS, RT, RRT
    Assistant Professor
  • Paula Trief, PhD
    Distinguished Service Professor
    Research Interests:

    My research focuses on the psychosocial issues that affect patients with diabetes and those at risk for diabetes.  I have developed and tested effective and practical interventions for patients with diabetes, those at risk, and their partners, to help them achieve better physical health (e.g., control of blood sugar, weight) and quality of life.  I have also studied the relationship between depression/anxiety and diabetes outcomes. My current NIH-funded project follows young adults with type 2 diabetes to better understand factors that affect medication adherence and healthcare usage, to design more effective behavioral interventions for this vulnerable group.
