RESEARCH INTERESTS
Dr. Tacket conducts Phase 1 and 2 clinical trials of experimental vaccines, primarily those directed against enteric infections such as cholera, typhoid and E. coli, and of other biologics, such as mucosal adjuvants, transgenic plant-based vaccines and milk immunoglobulin concentrates. Dr. Tacket is interested in novel approaches to mucosal vaccination, including live viral and bacterial vectors, attenuated strains, plant-based vaccines, and mucosal adjuvants. She develops phase 1 and 2 clinical protocols in which volunteers from the community enroll, and supervises clinical nursing staffs involved in inpatient and outpatient vaccination studies and oversees regulatory affairs. She is involved with inpatient challenge studies, when appropriate, to test efficacy of candidate vaccines.
