Dr Larisa Labzin is an ARC Future Fellow and leads the viruses and innate immunity lab at the Institute for Molecular Bioscience. Her lab studies how our innate immune system detects viral infections and deciphers diverse signals to mount an appropriate immune response, with a focus on influenza and SARS-CoV-2. The Labzin group aims to identify new therapeutic targets to prevent and treat viral infections and diseases in humans and animals.
