OUR MISSION The mission of the Vector Borne Infectious Disease Research Group at Virginia Tech is to elucidate the fundamental mechanisms involved in the transmission and pathogenesis of vector borne infectious organisms and to deepen our understanding of the nature of infectious disease to lead the search for novel approaches to disease mitigation. ABOUT THE GROUP Group members approach the problem of infectious disease from a diversity of perspectives. Current research applies genetics, cell biology, biochemistry, proteomics, structural biology, geostatistics and modeling in multi-faceted viewpoints towards understanding the global processes involved in vector borne disease. Please see the research descriptions of individual faculty for more information. The members of the Vector Borne Infectious Disease Research Group
are affiliated with the Institute
for Biomedical and Public Health Sciences and are housed in the Departments of Biochemistry, Chemistry
and Entomology and at the Virginia
Bioinformatics Institute.
