Dr. Ault's research clinical interests are infectious diseases and women's health. He has been an investigator in a wide variety of translational and clinical research involving vaginitis, gonorrhea, Chlamydia, herpes and human papillomavirus. Recent research projects include HPV vaccine development and immunology, HPV detection in pap smears and the use of molecular techniques to examine the normal vaginal flora. Dr. Ault also participates as an investigator in the Emory Vaccine Center, and this work includes maternal vaccination for influenza. Dr. Ault is a fellow of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and a fellow of the Infectious Society of America, and is one of the few physicians in the United States with both of these honors. He is also an examiner with the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the faculty advisor for the Luella Klein Society, a group for Emory medical students with a career interest in women's health. |
