Some exotic viruses pose a threat to Europe, while there are no vaccines available to control an epidemic caused by viruses like West-Nile, dengue and Chikungunya. Research into these viruses, their vectors (mosquitoes and birds), and into vaccine development are therefore among the research topics of the Exotic Viruses team at the Viroscience lab.

Bio-imaging technology for better diagnostic tools. Cyttron II joined in the collective FES2009 application together with three other consortia: NIRM, Neurobasic and Virgo. DCTI was approved shortly thereafter. LSH was the central desk for these applications. NeuroBasic-PharmaPhenomics wants to build new rodent models of neurological and psychiatric diseases and translate pre-clinical studies of animal models into novel treatments for human patients.

HIV/AIDS has evolved into a chronic disease in the industrialized world. Yet, HIV infected patients are ‘condemned’ to lifelong antiviral therapy in order to suppress the virus. Research into HIV vaccines and efficacy of antiviral therapy is therefore among the research topics of the HIV/AIDS team at the Viroscience lab. Team leader Rob Gruters.

Measles has long-term effect on childhood mortality. Extra dividends from measles vaccination. By researchers of Princeton University, in collaboration with Rik de Swart and Albert Osterhaus of the Viroscience lab, demonstrates that a significant proportion of infectious disease childhood mortality that occurs during a period of more than two years after measles can still be attributed to measles immune suppression. A possible explanation for this finding is that measles causes long-term immune suppressi...
