OverviewAI-generated summary

Lindsey Barrett's research focuses on the pathogenesis of oncogenic viruses, particularly Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV). Her work investigates how KSHV interacts with host cells and other microbes, including SARS-CoV-2 and *Porphyromonas gingivalis*. Barrett has studied the role of KSHV in conditions such as Kaposi's sarcoma and lung cancer, exploring viral activation mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets. Her recent publications include studies on the lytic reactivation of KSHV induced by SARS-CoV-2 proteins and anti-COVID-19 drugs, as well as the coinfection of KSHV with *P. gingivalis* in HIV-positive individuals. Barrett has also explored novel therapeutic compounds for diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma and small-cell lung cancer. Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 7 and 143 total citations across 9 publications. She collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Lu Dai and Steven R. Post.
