cells—and indirectly—as phages that infect the bacteria of the microbiome.</p> <p class="large">Our researchers study both human viruses and phages and how they manipulate human health and disease. They are generating rapid diagnostics, innovative vaccines and new drugs and immunotherapies against dangerous viral infections. Our scientists are also developing methods to use phages as therapies to treat antibiotic-resistant bacteria and promote healthy microbiomes.</p> <p>Gladstone virologists spearheaded the use of antiretroviral therapy as HIV prophylaxis (PREP). Equipped with two high-security biocontainment labs, Gladstone virologists rapidly responded to COVID-19, developing innovative diagnostic, preventative, and treatment approaches. These include the first host-SARS-CoV-2 interaction map, which identified FDA-approved drugs as potential antiviral treatments, a new “combined” mRNA vaccine with better efficacy, rapid testing devices using CRISPR technology and mobile phones, and virus-like particles that allow scientists to investigate new versions of the virus as they arise.</p> <p>The institute is also the organizational hub for <a href="https://gladstone.org/news/new-approach-curing-hiv" rel="noopener" target="_blank">HOPE, a multinational NIH-sponsored Collaboratory to find a cure for HIV.</a> HOPE scientists aim to convert HIV from a pandemic pathogen into a harmless part of the human genome using advanced epigenetic and gene therapy interventions.</p> <p>Gladstone scientists are dedicated to mentoring the future generation of scientists interested in virology. <a href="https://gladstone.org/training" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Learn more about Gladstone’s training programs.</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <div id="directorquote"> <div class="row"> <div id="directormug"></div> <div class="dquote"> <div class="dquote-text"> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-director-quote-text field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>“Our goal is to discover the most impactful disease mechanisms and translate basic scientific discoveries into better treatments for patients.”</p> </div> <div class="dname"> <div class="field field--name-field-director-name field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Melanie Ott, MD, PhD</div> </div> <em> <div class="field field--name-field-director-title field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Director, Gladstone Institute of Virology</div> </em> <div id="dirvisbutt"> <!-- <a href="#vision" class="button white">Director’s Message</a> --> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="accordion-wrapper"> <div class="container"> <h2>Major Scientific Achievements</h2> <div class="accordion accord1"><h3> <div class="field field--name-field-achievement-1-title field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Led the Global iPrEX Study, Which Established Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) as an Efficient Way to Prevent New HIV Infections</div> </h3></div> <div class="panel"> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-achievement-1 field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>A Gladstone team demonstrated that two antiretroviral drugs, combined in a single tablet, can be used to prevent HIV infection in high-risk populations, providing proof of concept for pre-exposure prophylaxis.

After identifying the crucial role played by SIRT1 in the aging of immune cells, they identified two potential new treatment targets. First, new drugs could be developed to strengthen SIRT1, which could postpone the development of age-related diseases and help people with a weaker immune system fight infections or better respond to immune vaccination. Second, drugs could be used to obtain the opposite effect on SIRT1 to support an aggressive anti-tumor response or other immune therapeutic approaches.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div id="experts"> <div class="container"> <h2>Virology Experts</h2> <div id="people" class="owl-carousel"> </div> <a name="vision"></a> </div> </div> <div id="dvision"> <div class="container"> <h2 style="color:white;">Director’s Message</h2> </div> </div> <div id="related-news"> <div class="container"> <h2>Related News</h2> <div id="news-carousel" class="owl-carousel"> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <style> .big-giant-head { background-image: url('/sites/default/files/background-images/virology-immunology.jpg');
