She leads a multidisciplinary international team investigating HCV-specific immune responses to improve vaccine development against HCV, is the lead immunologist on a clinical trial of HBV vaccines in people living with HIV,  and co-leads a large team investigating immune responses to COVID-19 infection and vaccines. In addition to her research on viral infections and vaccines, Dr. Cox is actively involved in clinical care of patients with HCV, HIV, and HBV infections.Dr. Cox serves as the director of the Medical Scientist Training Program.
