Laboratory of Transmission Immunology
Transmission of viruses is only possible during a specific time frame after infection: we can call this the “window of transmission”. A major gap in mitigating (e.g., airborne) transmission and closing this window quickly is the lack of understanding of critical immune determinants of efficient transmission. To be able to close the window of transmission through the design of better mitigation strategies, we develop a mechanistic understanding of the spatial and longitudinal interplay between virus tropism, innate and adaptive immune responses, changes in host physiology, and exhalation or shedding of infectious virus in droplets or fluids.
