Host recognition of bacterial toxin [ 2019 - ]

Research Grant

Brief description Food poisoning affects 1 in 4 Australians every year. In this proposal, we will explore the ability of toxins produced by a foodborne bacterium to trigger activation of a protective response in the cell. These results could lead to new ways to neutralise the harmfulness of the pathogen and/or boost the ability of the cell to mount a more effective response to eradicate the infection.
