I am a professor in the department of Microbiology and Immunology at Cornell University. My research is on TLRs, and I co-direct two NIH-funded programs that have an explicit goal to increase diversity of the biomedical workforce, and more specifically the professoriate. I am passionate about science communication and using my voice to effect change. I am also co-host of the podcast Immune (www.microbe.tv/immune)
