Viral-surface interactions studied by vibrational sum-frequency spectroscopy

The recent COVID-19 pandemic, and in particular fomite transmission of the virus, led to a lot of interest in how viral particles attached to surfaces, their survival times on different materials and how they transferred to hosts. Read more

Broad-spectrum antiviral glycopolymer design and testing for improved global antiviral response options

We are in a constant and ever evolving battle with viruses. Our only defence are vaccines or antivirals. Both are typically developed in response to viral outbreaks meaning that any defence we mount is reactive and not proactive. Read more
