Brief description Viruses elicit a rapid immune response upon infection that is crucial for controlling viral spread and disease. Human cells detect viral molecules to coordinate the the production of anti-viral proteins. The aim of this research is to identify new genes that are essential for controlling the initial immune response to viral infection. This research will help us understand how virus infection can be controlled appropriately, and may lead to the development of new anti-viral therapeutics.
