My major research interests include pathophysiology of the complications of inherited bleeding disorders; genetic, environmental factors and non-inhibitory antibodies associated with the anti-FVIII inhibitor phenomenon; blood-borne pathogens and the safety of clotting factor concentrates; and host and viral genetic factors impacting long term outcomes of HIV and HCV infection.
