Research

Bal’s research has centered on understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms that regulate T lymphocyte differentiation, survival, and function in health and disease. [12] Her work has included investigations of Th1/Th2 pathways, memory versus effector T cell responses, macrophage survival, and immune responses to infectious agents. [13]

She has co-authored numerous peer-reviewed articles on immune cell regulation, including studies on CD8 T cell responses in virus-induced morbidity, B cell differentiation pathways, and the roles of immune signaling pathways in infection and inflammation. [14]
