Greetings!
I'm looking to chat with people who do mumps research. I have an
interesting virus and brain development model with another virus
(perinatal infection of rats with Borna disease virus). I am interested
in looking into a similar phenomenon reported in hamsters and mumps.
However, it seems that very few investigators in the US do basic
pathogenesis work in mumps virus. I would like to talk to anyone working
in mumps re: practical techniques (e.g. propagating the virus, animal model
systems etc.).
Thanks in advance,
