Research:
The area of current research interest involves collaboration with Dr. Steve Hinrichs and Peter Iwen in
our department, and Dr. Stefano Tarantolo in Internal Medicine, in an attempt to identify a non-culturable
microorganism which we suspect may have a role in post-transplant TTP. Our suspicions are based on
morphological (transmission electron microscopy and light microscopy) grounds and beneficial responses
in affected patients treated with empirical antimicrobial therapy.
