My current research focuses on the evolution of genetic diversity in the human major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and the evolutionary significance of individual MHC diversity. I am interested in the mechanisms that create genetic diversity in the MHC region as well as the selective constraints that shape and maintain the exceptional genetic diversity at MHC and particularly at Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) loci.
