Research
We are a virology lab interested in drug development.
Our projects include:
-
From plants to drugs: Developing novel antivirals based on natural-product compounds against coronaviruses.
-
Host-targeting antivirals: Identifying and developing novel broad-spectrum host-targeting antivirals against coronaviruses.
-
Tackling norovirus: Investigating disinfection using a novel catalyst system.
We have also collaborated with other research groups on:
-
Environmental stability of coronaviruses: Investigating the stability and survival of coronaviruses on various surfaces.
-
Antiviral products: Assessing the efficacy of antiviral or disinfection products against viruses.
-
Novel drug delivery systems: Developing and evaluating systems to deliver drugs and/or vaccines to cells.
You can find our list of publications, and more about our current lab members.
