Michael Farzan

Michael Farzan is a scientist specializing in immunology and biochemistry, focusing on how our immune system interacts with diseases like HIV and COVID-19. His research explores how certain proteins on our cells, such as the ACE2 receptor, enable viruses to enter and infect our bodies. By understanding these processes, Farzan aims to develop new treatments and vaccines. His work combines laboratory experiments and structural biology to uncover the detailed mechanisms of immune response and pathogen entry, contributing to advancements in disease prevention and therapy.
