Funded Activity Summary

RNA viruses are one of the last frontiers for globally significant infections. There ability to rapidly hide from the host's immune response and cause additional infections has made the ability to make vaccines very difficult. By studying patients that naturally and rapidly clear multiple infections we have identified strategies to conquer these highly divergent viruses. We are currently dedicated to trying to understand how we can mold this knowledge into a protective vaccine.
