Research Grant
[Cite as https://purl.org/au-research/grants/nhmrc/1124162]Brief description The immune system can fight viral infections with antibodies, which mark viruses outside of cells for elimination by immune cells. Antibody-coated viruses try to escape elimination by hiding inside cells. This project will determine how immune cells recognise the antibody-coated viruses ‘hiding’ within them, and the defence response they launch to eliminate viral infection. Such knowledge may allow us to develop better anti-viral drugs and vaccines to fight viral diseases like the common cold.
