Dr. Maxim Rosario is an assistant professor of pathology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. His clinical focus is on analyzing patient specimen samples for the development of immune pathology with most cases analyzed for suspected Multiple Myeloma. Clinical duties also include oversite of other tests requested by physicians. His research focus is on the study of NK cells and their use in immune therapy as it relates to cancer. He also studies CD8 T cell mediated immunity and its role in viral pathogenicity and vaccinology.

He received his undergraduate degree in Cell Biotechnology and a Master of Science in Microbiology from the University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada. He earned his MB BCh BAO from University College Cork in Cork, Ireland and his DPhil in Vaccinology from the University of Oxford, Oxford, England.
