In this laboratory, we are investigating the molecular interactions of parasites and pathogens with their host insects. In particular, our focus is on:
1. Investigating the role of non-coding RNAs
(such as microRNAs) in insect biology and
host-pathogen interactions, in particular
anti-viral responses.
2. Exploring virus encoded genes that are
responsible for replication, pathogenesis
and manipulation of host gene expression
machinery.
3. Investigating Wolbachia-mosquito-virus
interactions
