Abisch-Frenkel Center for Infectious Disease and Host Interaction Research

The Center for Infectious Disease and Host Interaction Research aims to advance microbiology and microbiome research and supports state-of-the-art basic and translational exploration seeking to understand the molecular basis of host-pathogen and host-commensal interactions, their connection with communicable and non-communicable diseases, and translation into methods of medical intervention that could thwart the substantial threat infectious diseases pose human existence.
