Eva-Maria Strauch

Principle Investigator
​

I am fascinated by the molecular creativity viruses use to recognize, enter and hijack cells. My mission is to understand and inhibit these molecular processes by combining tools of computational and experimental methods - with the goal to develop new avenues for diagnostics, therapeutics and vaccines. 
In my spare time I am running behind a high-energy baby (premature toddler). More

Raulia Syrlybaeva

Postdoctoral Fellow

My main research interests lie in computational chemistry. Currently, I am focused on the uses of machine learning in protein design problems. Besides, I participate in a project aiming to provide deeper insights into patterns of structural diversity of influenza virus hemagglutinin.

Karen Juliana Gonzalez Restrepo

Graduate Student, Bioinformatics

I am a Ph.D. student in bioinformatics at the University of Georgia. My main focus is the study of viral surface proteins from a multi-state approach. Specifically, I am interested in understanding how the stability of these proteins contribute to infectivity and how this relationship can be used for vaccine development.
