Research themes involve the interaction between viruses and their hosts and the development of antiviral strategies.

Research work within the Bosch group is focused on coronaviruses. Coronaviruses are important pathogens relevant for veterinary and human health.

Research work within the group focuses on the molecular biology of influenza A virus, with an emphasis on the (evolution of the) interactions of this virus with sialoside receptors and the consequences thereof for virus mobility, endocytic uptake, tropism and pathogenesis.

Research work focuses on the cellular processes underlying immune defense against intracellular pathogens and tumor growth.

Research work and areas of expertise include: autoimmunity, cell stress, immunology, microbiology, rheumatology and vaccines.

Research work is focused on studying the small molecule metabolite profile of cells using Mass Spectrometry – with biochemical and chemical biology techniques.

Research work focuses on extracellular vesicles,  a very special communication unit that cells use to influence each other’s behavior

Research work in Karin's group explores how commensal and pathogenic bacteria interact with mucins and impact their signaling. The goal of the research is to elucidate the functions of transmembrane mucins in health and disease.
