Aaron Irving
Dr Aaron Irving trained at Monash Institute of Medical Research, Melbourne and Emerging Infectious Diseases, Duke-NUS Medial School, Singapore. He recently opened his lab at ZJE, China with a focus on emerging zoonotic viral infections and the host-pathogen interactions triggered by these viruses. There is a special interest in comparative biology using bats as a model organism and identifying key factors from bats that may be utilized to improve the human immune responses to pathogen infections. Other projects in the laboratory include novel diagnostic techniques to identify current or historical infection of wildlife by zoonotic viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, and establishing/evaluating factors that may contribute to zoonotic potential.
