Dr. Vineet N. KewalRamani first developed an interest in retroviruses as an undergraduate in the lab of Antonito T. Panganiban at the McArdle Cancer Center, University of Wisconsin at Madison. After choosing to pursue molecular biology as a career, he next went to the University of Washington in Seattle and did his graduate work studying HIV molecular virology in the lab of Michael Emerman at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. After completing his Ph.D. in 1996, he moved to New York to join the lab of Dan R. Littman to better understand HIV infection within an immunological context. While working in the Littman lab, Dr. KewalRamani joined in an effort to develop a murine model for HIV replication using transgenic technologies. These studies provided the foundation for his lab's current studies of understanding the blocks to HIV replication in murine cells, identifying human cell cofactors involved in HIV replication, and translating these basic science findings to develop better cell culture and animal models for HIV infection studies.
