w88 online live casino Interests

Research in the Burtnick laboratory is focused on identifying the w88 online live casino mechanisms used by Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia mallei to persist within eukaryotic cells. Specifically, we are interested in determining how the virulence-associated secretion systems expressed by these facultative intracellular pathogens facilitate their survival and replication within a variety of human and murine cell types. Our laboratory has over 18 years of experience working with pathogenic Burkholderia species and has significant expertise in areas relating to bacterial genetics, pathogenesis, host-pathogen interactions, vaccine antigen discovery and immune assay development. The main objective of our w88 online live casino is to use the information gained from host-pathogen interaction studies to identify antigens that can be used to develop novel vaccines, diagnostics and immune assays to combat the diseases caused by these important bacterial pathogens.
