VGTI Florida researchers are studying the human immune system with the goal of understanding the mechanisms and pathways that are responsible for our response to pathogens and cancer. Our research is therefore ultimately directed toward preventing and treating infectious diseases, cancer and boosting immunity of the elderly. We are working in collaboration, locally and globally, with others on developing new vaccines and treatments to fight diseases such as HIV/AIDS, breast and ovarian cancer, and influenza as well as emerging infectious diseases such as Yellow Fever, West Nile Virus, and Dengue Fever.
