Student Spotlight: Sara Garamszegi
Sara Garamszegi
B.S. / Biology & Computer Science / University of Miami / 2009
Advisors: Brandon Xia and John Connor
Sara works in two labs:
xialab.bu.edu
connorlab.com
Her research integrates computational and experimental analyses of the host-virus interactome. Combining high-resolution experimental data analysis (e.g. microarrays) with a systems biology approach can elucidate general mechanisms governing host-virus interaction. Integrating the two disciplines will provide information about universally applicable patterns of viral infection, while simultaneously examining the consequences of specific host-pathogen interactions.
