Professor Mala Maini was recently awarded a Wellcome Trust Investigator Award in Science to study the immunopathogenesis and immunotherapy of viral hepatitis.
The funding will allow her team to define key molecular mechanisms to harness tissue-resident CD8 T cells and manipulate hepatic immunity in order to develop novel immunotherapeutic approaches to treat chronic HBV infection.
