Research
- I did my doctoral thesis [1] on factors associated with HIV susceptibility in
the female in the female genital tract. We studied how female sex hormones,
seminal plasma and living in an HIV-serodiscordant relationship affect the
female genital mucosa. My current research is focused on how female sex
hormones, both endogenous and exogenous such as when using hormonal
contraceptives, as well as the genital microflora affects the genital mucosa.
Hopefully, this knowledge can aid in developing preventative measures to
decrease the spread of HIV, such as vaccines or microbicides, as well as
contributing to the development of safe hormonal contraceptives.
