Torbett Laboratory

The Torbett Laboratory has three research areas: Evolution of HIV-1 inhibitor resistance and fitness; Hematopoietic stem and T cell gene delivery strategies to block HIV-1entry and limit infection; and The regulation of normal and abnormal myeloid development and function by the ets transcription factor PU.1 (spi). Please check the Research page for more information on our research program.
