Immunology
Vaccine Research Institute of San Diego
United States of America
Dr. Milich is an immunologist who has enjoyed a very productive career studying the immune response to the hepatitis B and C viruses. Having published in excess of 150 peer reviewed articles, he is regarded internationally as an outstanding investigator who seeks innovative approaches to answer significant questions. Over the course of his career he has been awarded multiple grants from the private sector as well as the NIH. His expertise in the areas of virology, cellular immunology, immune tolerance and transgenic murine systems will be pivotal to the success of VRISD's quest to solve the problems inherent in vaccine development. He founded the Vaccine Research Institute of San Diego in 2000.
The Milich lab has developed a transgenic mouse model focusing on the immune response to HBV nucleoproteins as well as a vaccine platform for developing vaccines to problem diseases which as yet have not yielded to more standard vaccine design.
