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 ...
Infectious disease dynamics, including severity, spread, and patient outcome, are shaped by host-pathogen interactions at multiple scales (ex: molecular, cellular, organismal, ecological).
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 ...
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 ...
The answer lies in how infected individuals invest into controlling pathogen proliferation and mitigating damage, two strategies respectively called resistance and disease tolerance. Pathogen ...
Pathogens must interact with host molecules, namely host proteins, to infect a host, evade the immune system, and cause ...
Nonetheless, much of disease ecology has historically focused on interactions between a single host and parasite species, despite growing evidence that changes in host and pathogen community structure ...
Expressions such as "pathogen," "infection" or "antimicrobial peptide" are still part of the standard scientific repertoire ...
Aim 2: Identify parasite factors that modify host cellular immune responses and their role in pathogenesis. Ultimately, we hope to discover novel immunological pathways and host-pathogen interactions ...
