Branch Moody, a Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School and Physician, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, is visiting Monash for approximately three weeks (27 July – 11 August) under the umbrella of a Harvard-Australia Fellowship.
Branch has pioneered the field of lipid-mediated immunity in humans, particularly in the context of the protective immune response to TB, and has recently explored lipid-immunity in the context of allergies and autoimmunity.
Branch will be giving a BDI seminar on Friday 5 August, as well as two workshops on paper writing/data review for ECRs. Please note that all workshops are at capacity, email for a place on the wait list.
