Anti-viral antibodies

The good, the bad and the ugly

Antibodies targeting viruses work in many different ways. Whilst the function of some antibodies is crystal clear, it is incredible that the activity of some antibodies is still a complete mystery.

The Caddy Lab aims to unravel some of the puzzles surrounding how antibodies work. We are interested in antibodies that are beneficial to the host, as well as those anti-viral antibodies that can have harmful effects.
