Zongdi Feng

Zongdi Feng studies enteric hepatitis viruses, particularly hepatitis A and hepatitis E, focusing on how these viruses enter and exit liver cells and how the immune system responds to and clears infection. Much of the work examines a distinctive feature of these viruses called 'quasi-envelopment,' where virus particles cloak themselves in host membranes to spread, and how the body's innate and T-cell immune responses control or fail to control infection. This research is relevant to students interested in virology, liver disease, and antiviral immunity.

Publication output peaked around 2020 and has since slowed to a steadier, lower rate of a few papers per year through 2025.
