Shane Patrick Crotty (born 26 January 1974) is a virologist and professor in the Vaccine Discovery Division at La Jolla Institute for Immunology.[1]

Education and academic posts

Crotty completed B.S. degrees in Biology and Writing from Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1996.[1] He then completed his Ph.D. in 2001 at the University of California, San Francisco with Raul Andino discovering the mechanism of action of the Hepatitis C drug ribavirin.[2][1]

Crotty went on to a postdoctoral fellowship from 2001 to 2003 with Rafi Ahmed at Emory University Vaccine Center studying immunity to viruses.[1] He joined La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology (LIAI) in 2003, as well as the Department of Medicine of University of California, San Diego in 2004 as an Adjunct Assistant Professor. He became an Associate Member with tenure at LIAI in 2009,[3] and then a Professor with tenure.

Research

Crotty's research has focused on immune responses to viral infections, in particular those driven by vaccines. His lab has done major work on the regulation and proliferation of follicular helper T cells, as well as immunological protection from HIV infection and HIV vaccine delivery strategy.[4] [5]
