    Collapse Overview 
    Collapse overview
    Parasites and their hosts co-evolve, leading to variation in both host and parasite genomes and to the emergence of differences in parasite virulence and host resistance. We are interested in host-parasite interactions between the obligate intracellular eukaryotic parasite Toxoplasma gondii and its mammalian hosts. The focus of my laboratory over the last years has been to identify genes of Toxoplasma that determine virulence, host genes and pathways that determine resistance/susceptibility, and to characterize their specific interactions. To achieve this we use a combination of genomics, biochemistry, genetics, microscopy, immunology and computational tools.
