Biography

Peter O'Hare is a professor at Imperial College London, specializing in Virology within the Department of Infectious Disease. His research focuses on understanding the fundamental virus-host interactions that underpin the critical earliest stages of infection by large complex DNA viruses, particularly using herpes simplex virus as a model system. He is particularly interested in two key areas: the mechanisms of early genome entry and nuclear transport, and the competing interactions between host transcription machinery and innate immune restriction mechanisms. O'Hare is currently pioneering methods that combine molecular cell biology with click-chemistry to study these processes at the single-cell and single-molecule levels.
