Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Hunter Olsen's research focuses on understanding viral infections, particularly SARS-CoV-2, and the dynamics of microbial communities. His work includes investigating the effectiveness of home antigen testing compared to RT-PCR and viral culture for detecting SARS-CoV-2. Olsen has also studied household transmission patterns of the Alpha variant of SARS-CoV-2 in the United States. Additionally, his research explores the complex interactions between symbionts, specifically Paraburkholderia, and social amoeba populations, examining how these dynamics impact the amoeba's resident microbiota. Earlier work by Olsen involved an analysis of student loan defaults following the Great Recession. He has collaborated with researchers from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences and the University of Central Arkansas on shared publications.
