Laboratory: Lab of Pathogenic Biology

Research Interest

Research in our lab focuses on several high-risk infectious diseases and their causative microbes, including respiratory viruses, HIV-1 and plasmodium. We are particularly interested in:

1)identifying novel sites of therapeutic and preventive vulnerabilities in these microbial pathogens;

2)rational screen and development of potential antivirals against their infections;

3)structure-guided engineering & functional reshaping of host factors for the treatment or prevention of these high-risk infectious diseases.

Expertise  

Integrative Structural Biology, Structural Proteomics
