She received her PhD from the Department of Bioinformatics, University of Würzburg, Germany. She previously held a postdoc position in the Department of Physics, Pennsylvania State University. Then she was an associate research scientist in the Department of Pathology, Yale School of Medicine before coming to Rochester. Juilee’s research program investigates effects of several factors including age, immunogenicity of the antigens, host genotype and host’s immune history on immune responses to infections and vaccinations. Specifically, she uses systems biology approaches to model probable trajectories of the immune response which then allows identification of parameters that can predict future outcomes of the disease.
