Bacteria and viruses employ a wide array of mechanisms and complex protein machines to infect cells and evade the host\u2019s immune response. Understanding the structure, function and regulation of proteins involved in pathogenesis is critical if we are to develop strategies to combat microbial infections. Join us at the Life Sciences Symposium to learn about a number of approaches being taken to investigate the molecular mechanisms of host\u2013pathogen interactions and how these findings are being used to combat infectious diseases.<\/p>\n
