Paul G. Thomas
Following his postdoctoral training with Nobel laureate Dr. Peter Doherty, Dr. Paul G. Thomas joined the faculty in the Department of Immunology in 2009. His work has been instrumental in generating new understanding of T cell receptor specificity and defining key elements of innate and adaptive immune responses that determine clinical outcomes to viral infections. Dr. Thomas leads several complex institutional programs including human influenza surveillance efforts and virtual repository development, and currently serves as PI for the 7-year, 12 institution DIVINCI consortium. In addition to his scientific achievements, Dr. Thomas is widely regarded for his mentorship and empowerment of junior scientists.
