Project description
Viruses are obligate intracellular pathogens. To be able to replicate in cells, spread to other cells, and avoid or delay elimination by the immune system, viruses have developed several, largely incompletely understood, interactions with cellular signaling pathways. The aim of this project is to obtain more insights in these interactions for herpesviruses.
