About Us
The Lab
The Wilen lab is located at the Yale School of Medicine in the Departments of Laboratory Medicine and Immunobiology. We are a a curious and diverse group interested in how viruses interact with and evade the immune system in the gut and airway. We are particularly focused on noroviruses, coronaviruses, and emerging viruses. We use a variety of mouse and human models to identify the molecular mechanisms of viral pathogenesis with our long term goal being to leverage these basic science discoveries to develop effective vaccines and therapeutics.
