We will also establish how interaction with host immunity and exposure to drugs will drive the evolution of pathogens. Using our established track record in pre-clinical and experimental medicine ...

This transdisciplinary course will examine the interface between pathogens and their hosts a multiple levels. We will begin with molecular and cellular interactions between host and pathogen species ...

Active host-pathogen interactions take place during infection of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). Outcomes of these interactions determine the efficiency of viral infection and ...

Infectious disease dynamics, including severity, spread, and patient outcome, are shaped by host-pathogen interactions at multiple scales (ex: molecular, cellular, organismal, ecological).

Aim 2: Identify parasite factors that modify host cellular immune responses and their role in pathogenesis. Ultimately, we hope to discover novel immunological pathways and host-pathogen interactions ...

Nonetheless, much of disease ecology has historically focused on interactions between a single host and parasite species, despite growing evidence that changes in host and pathogen community structure ...

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a crucial organelle present in all eukaryotic cells, including human cells. The ER plays a ...

Due to global warming Finnish agriculture is facing a threat of exponential increase of fungal pathogens. Warmer autumns and increased air moisture provide an optimal environment for fungal growth. To ...

Classical evolutionary theory states that virulence evolves to maximize a pathogen's basic reproduction ratio, i.e., the average number of secondary infections caused by one infected host.
