Dr. Eman Soliman is a research scientist in the Department of Biomedical Sciences and Pathobiology at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech). Her primary research interest is modulating the innate immune response to mitigate detrimental effects following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Her investigations are centered on elucidating the role of efferocytosis, the clearance of apoptotic debris, as a neuroprotective signal during the acute phase after brain trauma, before the initiation of maladaptive immune responses.
