Klaus Schughart, biographical note

Klaus Schughart is Head of the Department of Infection Genetics (INFG) at the Helmholtz Center for Infection Research (HZI) in Germany. The HZI is a government funded public research institute dedicated to perform basic research on host-pathogen interactions with the aim to develop new strategies for diagnostics, prevention and therapy of infectious diseases.

The main research interest in the IFNG department is to understand the role of genetic factors that determine resistance or susceptibility to influenza A virus infections. For these studies, we are using the mouse as model system. We established models for lethal and non-lethal infections using different mouse populations and knock-out models.
