OverviewAI-generated summary
Michael Kidd's research focuses on the application of molecular biology techniques for the detection and diagnosis of infectious diseases, particularly SARS-CoV-2. His work includes the validation and assessment of various diagnostic platforms, such as TaqPath Polymerase Chain Reaction, lateral flow testing, and loop-mediated isothermal amplification coupled to nanopore sequencing (LamPORE).
Kidd has investigated the association between specific SARS-CoV-2 lineages and viral load, as well as the sensitivity of diagnostic tests in different settings, including low prevalence scenarios for asymptomatic individuals. His publications also explore the accuracy of reverse-transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification for SARS-CoV-2 detection in saliva and nasopharyngeal/oropharyngeal swabs. Beyond infectious disease, his research interests extend to cancer diagnostics, with publications on multianalyte liquid biopsy for breast cancer and a Phase II trial for recurrent clear cell carcinoma of the ovary. He has also contributed to guidelines for HIV-2 management and a case report on polio virus clearance.
