Jenny Hyde, PhD joins the Department of Medicine in the Division of Infectious Diseases as an Associate Professor as of July 2026.
Research in the Hyde lab is centered on efforts to define virus-host interactions, with a particular focus on how viral encoded RNA and RNA structures contribute to immune evasion, pathogenesis, and transmission. In particular, they are interested in viral RNA structures of alphaviruses (family Togaviridae), a group of mosquito-borne RNA (+ssRNA) viruses.
