OverviewAI-generated summary

Dr. Sheila Haley's research focuses on polyomaviruses, particularly the JC polyomavirus (JCPyV) and its role in progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). Her work explores the mechanisms of JCPyV infection, spread, and biogenesis of associated extracellular vesicles. Recent studies have investigated potential therapeutic inhibitors of JCPyV, including teriflunomide and the oxindole GW-5074, detailing their mechanisms of action in glial cells and choroid plexus epithelial cells. Dr. Haley's investigations also examine the restrictive nature of JCPyV penetration across the blood-cerebral spinal fluid barrier. Additionally, she conducts research on plant viruses, wireless communications, and energy harvesting in wireless networks.
