About
The Division of Experimental Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco aspires to improve the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of infectious diseases of global importance.
Through a multidisciplinary and collaborative research approach, we study the way in which the human body responds to infections, e.g., HIV, tuberculosis, and malaria. Each of these infections has a unique impact on the human immune system and studying them individually as well as in concert presents a more complete understanding of underlying disease. We believe our approach will lead to the development of vaccines and eventually the eradication of these diseases around the world.
