General Research Interests:

Dr. Bergmann's research has provided significant insights into the regulation of and function of CD8 T cells during viral infections of the central nervous system (CNS) associated with demyelination. Her studies on the distribution, trafficking, and quantitation of virus specific T cells during acute infection have led to the discovery of long-term retention of functionally impaired T cells within the CNS in the absence of infectious virus.
