Mission: To make fundamental advances in microbial pathogenesis and gene therapy in order to contribute to the treatment of infectious and genetic diseases
Translation: Viruses, bacteria and defective genes can all cause diseases and we are looking for key steps in the processes where treatments could intervene.
