As a dedicated researcher in the field of infectious diseases, I am committed to furthering our understanding of the intricate mechanisms governing chronic viral infections, with a specific focus on hepatitis B, particularly during pregnancy. My research aims to unravel the complexities of immune responses and their correlation with viral infection in pregnant women, ultimately leading to the development of innovative strategies to prevent the vertical transmission of infections from mother to baby.
