Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Mayumi Nakagawa is a Professor in the Department of Pathology at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, College of Medicine. Her research focuses on understanding and enhancing T-cell responses to high-risk human papillomaviruses (HPVs). This work has been supported by a renewal grant from the National Cancer Institute (NIH) totaling $727,264.

Nakagawa's recent publications investigate various aspects of HPV, including the expansion of HPV-specific T cells in individuals treated with therapeutic vaccines, coinfections with other oncoviruses in HPV-positive individuals, and the evaluation of DNA extraction protocols for studying cervical microbiota from cytology specimens. She also has publications related to cancer prevention measures and has been involved in research on hyperon nucleon scattering and nuclear physics.

With an h-index of 29 and over 2,800 citations across 143 publications, Nakagawa is recognized as a high-impact researcher. She leads a research group and collaborates with colleagues at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Sumit K. Shah, Hannah Coleman, Takeo Shibata, and Yong-Chen Lu.
