Simplistically, 'pathogenesis of infection' defines the way that a given pathogen influences a host's immune system. But how one understands the interaction between pathogen and host can differ ...
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 ...
Heterogeneity is ubiquitous in real-world host populations, yet most theories assume homogeneity. Using a metapopulation model, we examine how host heterogeneities, such as uneven movement patterns ...
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 ...
In the realm of cellular biology, cellular activity significantly influences both the intercellular environment and the cell's immediate surroundings. When cells encounter physiological stress or ...
In the field of infectious diseases, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a severe and growing challenge, especially with ESKAPEE pathogens, which are known to evade conventional treatments ...
