Background
Dr. Rebecca Veenhuis is an Assistant Professor of Molecular and Comparative Pathobiology (MCP), and Neurology, at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine with expertise in immunology and HIV latent reservoirs.
Her research interests include understanding how the immune system regulates chronic viral infections and in turn how these diseases can regulate the immune response. Her areas of specific focus include understanding inflammasome activation in the CNS during SIV infection, as well as elucidating the role myeloid reservoirs play in ART treated HIV/SIV infection. She has recently received support from NIMH to study sex-based differences in the myeloid reservoirs of people with HIV and SIV-infected ART-suppressed macaques.
