Doctorate Biological Systems and Organisms
A combination of Biological Systems, Molecular biology, virology and little flavor of Immunology helped in my search for the impact of DC-SIGN receptor in the modulation of dendritic cell by HIV-1 Envelope to facilitate transmission or viral pathogenesis at the HIV-1; Structure-function and viral fitness group, at the University of Cape Town, S.A
2003
Master Biological Systems and Organisms
HIV immune response and vaccine design
