Invading Tachyzoite of Toxoplasma gondii

Meissner Laboratory

Investigation of the mechanisms involved in invasion and modulation of the host cell by apicomplexan parasites

Toxoplasma gondii, like all Apicomplexans, has a complex life cycle but serves as a superior model for studying host invasion and intracellular development. Our research focuses on essential genes, invasion mechanisms, and vesicular trafficking systems crucial for host cell modulation.

The Meissner lab is a member of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at the LMU Munich. We are located in Lena-Christ-Str. 48, 82152 Planegg-Martinsrie
