Project: Neuroimmune interactions in virus infection
Mueller Group
This project will examine how viruses interact with the peripheral nervous system. We are investigating how neuroinflammation occurs, and how nervous-immune system interactions shape outcomes of infectious diseases.

5 vacancies
Research in the Mueller group is focused on examining immune responses and nervous system interactions during acute and chronic viral infections and in cancer. We are seeking a fundamental understanding of biology and new treatments for disease. We are using state-of-the-art methods, including advanced microscopy, spectral flow cytometry, single cell sequencing and bioinformatics.
