Pandemic coronavirus researchers David Vessler (left) and Alejandra Tortorici (right) at the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle. The Veesler lab uses cryo-electron microscopy to study the structure and function of the coronavirus' infectivity machinery, and how neutralizing antibodies can lock down this machinery and block the virus from attaching to and fusing with host cells.
