KL2 Program Graduate, Moises Huaman, MD, associate professor in the Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Infectious Diseases, University of Cincinnati was awarded an R03 for his research project entitled "Mouse model of post-infection atherosclerosis". Dr. Huaman’s clinical and translational research focuses on the interplay between infection and cardio-metabolic diseases, with a particular emphasis in understanding how tuberculosis and common co-infections influence cardiovascular disease. Through the R03 project, Dr. Huaman and colleagues will establish and characterize an essential mouse model of post-infection atherosclerosis to study underlying immune mechanisms and discover novel targeted interventions to limit atherosclerosis progression post-infection. The project will be conducted in collaboration with Drs. David Hui, PhD and Joseph Qualls, PhD.
