Project Details

Description

Dr. Alaedini continues his work on characterizing the immune response to Borrelia bacteria. He has shown that antibodies that bind to VlsE protein on the surface of the bacteria change over disease course. He is also studying whether elevated inflammatory markers correlate with persisting symptoms.
