Funded Activity Summary

We know that many parts of viruses are displayed to the immune system, but at present the exact fragments are difficult to predict, we do not know all the genes in our bodies that control this process and we also need better methods to study the way some viruses (e.g. the cold sore virus) avoid detection. This project will study these problems with the overall goal of improving vaccine design, understanding immune deficiency and how viruses fight back against our immune system.
