Infection Biology of Salmonella
During hot summer months, Salmonella frequently dominates the headlines with reports of infections caused by contaminated ice cream or egg dishes. The aggressive and quick bacteria rapidly infect a large number of people. However, our understanding of the mechanisms that Salmonella uses to infect us is fragmentary at best. In HZI’s Department of Molecular Infection Biology, the junior research group Infection Biology of Salmonella is studying the bacterium’s attack tactics – in order to use this information to develop new strategies in the ongoing fight against enteropathogenic bacteria.
