Shane Crotty

Biography

Shane Crotty is a Professor with tenure in the Vaccine Discovery Division. Dr. Crotty's research focus is on the underlying immunology of vaccines, particularly the development of potent antibody responses and memory, with a predominant focus on the important role of CD4 T cells in these processes. By better understanding these processes, Dr. Crotty hopes new and better vaccines can one day be developed, particularly against deadly diseases like HIV, malaria, and tuberculosis, where no good vaccines currently exist.
