Research Interests
The generation of fluorescent Influenza A reporter viruses has made it possible to trace the virus both in vitro and in vivo. This offers new opportunities to study influenza virus replication, tropism, pathogenesis and transmission. My work is focused on constructing and characterizing different subtypes of fluorescent viruses.
