Almodovar Laboratory of Molecular Virology & Vascular Pathogenesis
We investigate how viruses affect vascular cell biology across various systems, with a focus on HIV and coronaviruses. Our experimental models help us understand how viruses compromise the quality of life and to identify novel therapeutic targets
Current Projects
HIV & pulmonary vascular remodeling
Pulmonary vascular
cell-cell crosstalk
Non-classical
viral reservoirs
SARS-CoV-2 & host
cell proteins
HIV & drugs of abuse
