Abstract
HIV uses many tricks to hijack the cellular actin cytoskeleton. Thereby, it manipulates our immune cells’ shape and movement in ways that promote viral spread. Join us for a highly visual presentation about a PhD journey, which combines high-resolution imaging and functional infection assays to dissect this unique biological interaction.
