Biography
Dr. Xiuqing Wang’s lab is primarily focused on viral pathogenesis, viral immunity, and vaccine development. The main research topic areas include the better understanding of the innate immunity against porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) and porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) and innovative approaches for novel vaccine development against these devastating diseases affecting the swine industry. We primarily employ primary monocytederived dendritic cells as an in vitro model system to study virus-host interaction and innate immunity.
