Welcome to the Varahan Lab @CCMB

Our lab has 2 primary research themes:

1) Decipher the metabolic basis of fungal morphogenesis and its implications in fungal virulence usingfungal model systems like Saccharomyces cerevisiae and pathogenic fungi including Candida albicans & Cryptococcus neoformans.

2) Elucidate the mechanisms underlying exacerbated fungal infections in inflammatory host environments with the long-term goal of developing host-directed immuno-therapies to combat recalcitrant fungal infections.
