Funded Activity Summary

The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a virus that infects and kills the cells of your immune system. This infection eventually leads to the Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). An important aspect in preventing infection is to study how HIV enters immune cells and how infection spreads. Our lab is researching drugs to block the entry of HIV in immune cells, which can hopefully be used together with existing anti-HIV drugs to slow down the spread of the virus and the onset of AIDS.
