Williams Faculty Lecture Series 2025 – Bob Rawle, The Molecular Biophysics of Viral Infection
Bob Rawle, Associate Professor of Chemistry at Williams College, discusses how viruses operate at a biophysical and biochemical level: how they know which cells to infect, how do they “take over” a cell and force it to make more viral particles, and why some viruses cause global pandemics, but others don't.
