Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Matthew S. McCabe's research focuses on molecular and genomic investigations of animal and human health, with a significant emphasis on infectious diseases. His work has explored the host response to viral pathogens in livestock, including bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) and bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1). This research has employed techniques such as whole-genome sequencing, ATAC-Seq to identify open chromatin regions, and transcriptome analysis to understand host-pathogen interactions at the molecular level.

Beyond livestock, McCabe has also contributed to understanding viral dynamics in human populations, notably through whole-genome sequencing of SARS-CoV-2 in the Republic of Ireland. His research portfolio extends to reproductive health, investigating factors influencing pregnancy loss. He utilizes advanced molecular techniques, including Nanopore sequencing for rapid metagenomics, and has elucidated host responses through miRNA transcriptome analysis.

With a h-index of 36 and over 3,400 citations across 100 publications, McCabe is recognized as a highly cited researcher. He leads an active research group at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, contributing to the fields of genomics, virology, and molecular biology.
