Biography

Dr. Nelson received his PhD from North Carolina State University while investigating protein subunit production for vaccine development. He arrived at the NIH in 2005 as a Postdoctoral Fellow, where he studied antibody-mediated neutralization of viral infections. Subsequently, Dr. Nelson worked in Dr. Rafael Casellas' lab investigating factors that regulate the epigenetic landscape of B cells during development and activation, and how these factors play a role in the development of B-cell lymphoma.
