Dr. Knox's research utilizes human blood and lung cells to study the characteristics of a protective immune response to Coccidioides. He is funded to develop a blood test to diagnose Valley fever and to determine who has been infected in the past.  Dr. Knox is also interested in determining non-invasive ways to diagnose and discriminate lung nodules related to past Valley fever infection from cancer nodules.
