Motivated and interested prospective students (Masters and PhD levels) are greatly encouraged to apply. For more information, please contact Professor Antanasijevic ([email protected]).
Dive into Structural Immunology Research
Our lab offers Master students the opportunity to participate in research focused on understanding antigen-antibody interactions and their implications for antiviral immunity and vaccine development.
In our lab, you will be able to:
- Develop technical experimental skills – covering techniques from molecular cloning and expression of recombinant proteins or virus-like particles, to purification and characterization of immune complexes using chromatography, biochemical assays and Electron Microscopy (EM).
- Learn advanced structural biology techniques – by using Electron Microscopy methods (nsEM, cryo-EM), you will learn to visualize and analyze antigen-antibody complexes and viral assembly.
- Acquire computational and analytical skills – by learning to use structural and computational biology tools, you will analyze and interpret complex experimental datasets to determine how the antigen structure impact the immune responses.
Whether you are interested in experimental virology, structural analysis, immunology, or computational analysis, a project in our lab will provide rigorous training and experience relevant to both academic and industry research careers.
