Overview

The focus of our laboratory is to investigate and develop vaccine strategies for infections with emerging viruses such as Ebola virus and the Middle Eastern Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) coronavirus and other clinically relevant viruses (including HIV, HBV).

We are also interested in natural immunity to viral infections and hope to gain insight into basic principles of immune protection with a special focus on cellular immunology.
