Ling Jin, Ph.D. Professor of Virology
My main research interest is on host-virus interaction, specifically herpesvirus and host interaction during latency and reactivation. I am interested in understanding the common mechanisms of latency and reactivation among human and animal herpesviruses. Another research interest of my lab is to diagnose and characterize new emergent viruses. In addition, I am also interested in researches on anti-viral drugs or chemicals to prevent virus infection, specifically chemicals that can block virus entry or drugs that can prevent virus replication.
