Trudeau Institute ...











I work at an incredible place called the Trudeau Institute where we work on finding ways to cure and treat infectious disease. My lab focuses on Tuberculosis. This is a very tough "bug" that has seen a resurgence in third world countries as well as populations throughout the world with compromised immune systems (i.e. HIV+). Other labs at the Institute work on cancer, flu, and multiple sclerosis. I'm learning a lot and TRULY loving my job. Feels good! Doesn't hurt that we are perched on the shore of Lower Saranac Lake. It's a very relaxed/academic-like atmosphere but a lot of good/serious research is taking place. Check it out if you're interested - see the link on this page for more info.
