Funded Activity Summary

Chronic infectious diseases have a devastating effect on global health. HIV and Plasmodium falciparum both cause chronic disease and have evaded effective vaccine design. Vaccines rely on immune memory – the ability to clear an infection rapidly to a previously encountered pathogen. This proposal investigates the formation and dysfunction of immune memory in chronic infectious diseases, which will be vital for creating new and effective vaccines.
