Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Teresa Evans' research focuses on the development and evaluation of therapeutic vaccines, particularly for human papillomavirus (HPV) related conditions. Her work has involved investigating the immune responses generated by peptide-based HPV therapeutic vaccines, such as PepCan, in clinical trials. These trials have explored the efficacy of PepCan, alone or in combination with adjuvants like Candida, for treating cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN2/3). Additionally, her research has extended to evaluating PepCan's potential in reducing head and neck cancer recurrence.

Evans collaborates with several researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Yong‐Chen Lu, Mayumi Nakagawa, Hannah Coleman, and Takeo Shibata, with whom she has co-authored multiple publications. Her scholarly output includes 27 publications, with a total of 463 citations, and an h-index of 10. She has been recently active in research, with publications dating up to 2026.
