In this podcast, we're excited to speak with Dr. Monica Embers, associate professor in the division of immunology, director of vector borne disease research, and director of the education and training program at the Tulane Primate Research Center. Dr. Embers’ research is focused on the detection of persistent Lyme disease in human autopsy tissues, identifying treatments to eradicate Borrelia infection and immunodiagnosis of Borrelia burgdorferi infection and cure. Her team is also developing research models for Bartonella infection.
