  2. Modelling Multivariate Nonlinear Vaccine Induced Immune Responses

    … multivariate immune responses for several novel Tuberculosis vaccines and the current BCG vaccine. The immune responses in the data set have several features which the models need to account for. In particular, the models need to account for the multivariate repeated measures for the subjects, …

  3. Strategies to improve BCG-mediated protection from <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i>

    <i>Background:</i> Host resistance to pulmonary tuberculosis is associated with the induction of IFN-y secreting T cells in the lung. Recombinant viruses used in heterologous prime-boost immunisation regimens can evoke powerful T cell immune responses and are promising candidates for novel …

  4. The characterisation of dendritic cell, microglial, macrophage and T cell responses during mycobacterial infection of the central nervous system

    Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a global health challenge and a quarter of the global population is infected with latent TB. It is a single infection that causes most deaths and was the number one cause of death in South Africa in 2017. Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) remains the only licensed …
