QCM-D as a tool to study the binding of viruses

This webinar discusses the use of QCM-D (Quartz Crystal Microbalance with Dissipation monitoring) to study how viruses, particularly norovirus, interact with membrane-associated glycolipids. It covers the role of these interactions in viral infection, resistance in certain populations, and explores how biosensors can provide insight into these processes. The session is presented by Dr. Gustaf Rydell a researcher at Sahlgrenska University Hospital, who shares findings from his research on norovirus and other viruses

Presentation by Dr. Gustaf Rydell

Dr. Gustaf Rydell is a researcher at Sahlgrenska University Hospital whose work focuses on understanding how viruses, such as norovirus, bind to and interact with cell membranes. He uses QCM-D (Quartz Crystal Microbalance with Dissipation monitoring) as a key technique to study the binding process of viruses, aiming to uncover how viral infections are initiated at the molecular level.
