The research of our laboratory is centered on hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and liver cancer. We are particularly interested in understanding how these two viruses interact with their host cells, how they invaded host immunity to establish persistent infection, and how they cause liver diseases including hepatocellular carcinoma.
