Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Steven Murdock's research focuses on molecular mechanisms of viral latency and host immune responses, particularly in the context of gammaherpesvirus infections. His work has investigated how intrinsic p53 activation restricts B cell expansion during the establishment of viral latency. Murdock has also explored the impact of HIF-alpha activation on macrophage function during murine Leishmania major infection. His recent publications address the amplitude of lytic replication in dictating adaptive immune activation and potential immune evasion strategies employed by KSHV LANA. Murdock has a h-index of 3 with 8 total publications and 65 citations. He has collaborated with researchers including J. Craig Forrest, Mark Manzano, Shana M. Owens, and Jason S. Stumhofer, all from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
