1) I learned about T-cell membrane nanotubes, and how they could play a role in intracellular transmission of HIV-1. These structures appear to accelerate transmission over long distance.
2)What would be the side-effects of targeting membrane nanotubes in HIV therapy?
3)How intracellular transport affects virulance- compare diffusion to other pathways
4)It seems very frightening that HIV can use T-cell nanotubes to rapidly spread. It's like an viral interstate. I'm curious about what else these nanotubes could be used for.

Don't Worry about Math

Hey guys, if you're slaving over the math, don't worry about it, we're not going to go into great detail about it. It is merely discussing how the simulation is formed, and we're really interested in the results of the simulation. So don't worry about it, focus on the other figures.
