Our Research
The Spriggs lab seeks to understand the cell biology of oncogenic and oncolytic viral infections. Specifically, we investigate the virus-host interactions mediating DNA viral entry, with particular interest in the steps required for these viruses to gain entry into the nucleus. Our lab uses a combination of classical biochemistry and molecular biology techniques with advanced microscopy to clarify the relationship between virus infection and cancer.
