Influenza Research

As the influenza virus continues to spread rapidly across the country, Dr. Victor Huber, assistant professor of Basic Biomedical Sciences for the University of South Dakota Sanford School of Medicine, is working to help scientists predict the severity of flu strains to better prepare for future outbreaks.  His research focuses on keeping track of changes in the flu virus so public health workers have an earlier warning that a more lethal strain may be developing.
