The Tripp Lab is part of the Department of Infectious Diseases at the University of Georgia. The laboratories are located at 220 Riverbend, and the Animal Health Resource Center (AHRC). Dr. Tripp joined the University of Georgia faculty as professor and Georgia Research Alliance Eminent Scholar to direct human and animal health vaccine and therapeutic studies at the AHRC. His laboratory studies focus on the mechanisms of immunity and disease pathogenesis associated with virus infections to provide the foundation necessary for vaccine development and treatments. The group has a general interest to promote biological application of nanofabricated particles in areas of biosensing, drug delivery, and DNA vaccination. Current applications include development of nanoparticle multiplex assays to detect host and viral proteins in situ, development of biosensors for emerging infectious diseases and biodefense, and development of bioconjugated nanoparticles to disrupt bacterial biofilms.
