Project: Lymphoid tissues and regulation of T cell responses to chronic viral infection

Mueller Group

This project will examine how lymphoid tissues respond to viral infection and regulate T cell responses. We will examine how lymphoid tissues contribute to T cell dysfunction during chronic virus infections and what this might mean for new disease treatments.
