Caine joins VN2M
Caine joins our team for his Master 2 internship.
He will work on T6SS membrane complex with Ona (PhD student).
Our team has been set up in January 2020. The main topic is study the 3D architecture and functioning of bacterial nanomachines which play a role in bacterial virulence during human infection, such as respiratory infection and cancer development. Our team works hands in hands with clinicians to identify many more virulence factors...
