Bradford S. McGwire studies parasitic diseases caused by single-celled organisms like Trypanosoma cruzi (which causes Chagas disease) and Leishmania (which causes leishmaniasis), focusing on how these parasites interact with and evade the host's immune system. His work includes efforts to develop vaccines and alternative treatments, such as antimicrobial peptides, for these neglected tropical diseases. Students in this area would likely work on host-parasite biology, immune responses to infection, and potential therapeutic or vaccine strategies.
