We use methods in molecular biology, immunology, and structural biology to study host-pathogen interactions, with the goal of informing strategies aimed...
My laboratory at the Ragon Institute of MGH, MIT and Harvard focuses on understanding the genetic adaptations of HIV in response to host immune pressures...
We are interested in the mechanisms that direct development and degeneration of the central nervous system (CNS) of vertebrates. We are focusing our...
Our research centers on elucidating molecular mechanisms of HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) viral entry -- that is, how HIV enters host cells and how...
Our laboratory has been focused on the mechanisms of HCV persistence and pathogenesis. Hepatitis C virus infects 170 million persons worldwide and is...
Our research focuses on new technologies for genomic & proteomic measurement, synthesis and modeling of biomedical & ecological systems -- in... Read more about George Mcdonald Church
Assistant Professor of Immunology and Infectious Diseases
Dr. Corbett uses her viral immunology expertise to propel novel vaccine development for pandemic preparedness, including mRNA-1273, a leading vaccine against... Read more about Kizzmekia Corbett

My laboratory is interested in the pathogenesis of virus-induced leukemia. In particular, we study the mechanism of infection by retroviruses that cause... Read more about James Morgan Cunningham
Alvan T. and Viola D. Fuller American Cancer Society Professor of Radiation Oncology
Our laboratory examines the molecular signaling pathways which regulate the DNA damage response in mammalian cells. Disruption of these pathways, by...
Gregor Mendel Professor of Genetics and of Medicine
A major area of our interest is how eukaryotic cells sense and respond to stress in the form of damage to their genetic material. When cells incur DNA...
Research in the Engelman laboratory focuses on the integration step in the retroviral life cycle. In order to replicate, retroviruses must integrate the...
