The goal of my research is to develop methods to label and track infectious HIV-1 as it traverses living cells in real-time. The aim is to identify those rare particles that have successfully integrated into chromosomal DNA, retrace their intracellular path as they travel to reach the cellular genome and identify their intracellular interaction partners, in a time and space resolved manner. Such information will be invaluable for the rational design of anti-HIV-1 drugs that target them.
