About
Dr. Ming Luo is a Professor at Georgia State University's College of Arts and Sciences, specializing in virus structure, biochemistry of viral replication, drug design, and cancer treatment. His research focuses on influenza virus proteins and the replication mechanisms of negative strand RNA viruses including vesicular stomatitis virus, respiratory syncytial virus, parainfluenza virus, and Ebola virus.
He investigates nucleocapsid formation and viral polymerase function, using structural biology approaches to understand viral replication. His work on vesicular stomatitis virus explores its potential as an oncolytic agent for cancer therapy. Recently, he has developed novel antiviral drugs targeting virus entry mechanisms, including approaches for SARS-CoV-2.
His honors include the Sidhu Award from the Pittsburgh Diffraction Society (1989) and service as session chair at the 15th International Negative Strand Virus Meeting (2013).
