Research Interests

The research of this unit focuses on the study of the interaction of retrovirus (HIV-1, MuLV) with host cells, in order to better understand the molecular mechanisms of viral replication, persistence, and immunopathogenesis: 1) by using primary cells, ex vivo tissue-culture, and MuLV infected mouse model, to explore the host modulation and viral hijacking during viral acute infection; 2) by using Omics methods, to identify host factor modulating HIV-1 replication and latency, and develop novel strategies for HIV/AIDS functional cure.
