Salvatore, Glesby, Gulick, Kaner
Dr. Mirella Salvatore is involved in clinical and translational studies of influenza in immunocompromised hosts. Specifically, she is the PI of an investigator-initiated study on combination therapy for influenza in the immunocompromised host and a phase 2 trial on a new long-acting antiviral for the prevention of influenza in high risk subjects. The CRU is a site for observational studies of influenza in outpatients conducted through the NIH-funded INSIGHT network and has participated in NIH-funded interventional trials of influenza in collaboration with Drs. Robert Kaner and David Berlin in the Division of Pulmonary & Critical Care Medicine.
