Dr. Bhagirath Singh has made outstanding contributions to immunology and autoimmunity that have allowed a better understanding of the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes mellitus and its therapy. Dr. Singh delineated the fundamental role of antigenic protein processing and presentation in the initiation of T lymphcyte-dependent adaptive immune responses. He also demonstrated the preventative and therapeutic potentials of modulating the cytokine environment in the initiation and progression of autoimmune-mediated destruction of pancreatic islet cells and the establishment of diabetes mellitus.
