About This Project

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infects 9 out of 10 people and can lead to cancers such as Hodgkin's, Burkitt's, and AIDS-related lymphomas. This project will explore molecular structure in EBV as a potential source of its cancer-causing properties, which are not well understood currently. Additionally, this work will help in the development of new cancer drugs that can target EBV molecular structures.
