معرفی
Glenn Randall is a Professor in the Department of Microbiology at the University of Chicago, with a focus on virus-host interactions in RNA viral infections. His work spans hepatitis C virus, dengue virus, Zika virus, and noroviruses, investigating their molecular mechanisms of replication and pathogenesis.
- University of Illinois, Urbana - B.S. in Microbiology (1993)
- University of Chicago - Ph.D. in Virology (1999)
- Rockefeller University - Postdoc in Virology (2005)
Research interests include:
- Lipid metabolism in viral replication
- Virus-host protein interactions
- Viral replication complex formation
- Antiviral therapeutic development
- Autophagy in viral pathogenesis
- Viral entry and assembly mechanisms
Recent article trends show interdisciplinary work at the intersection of virology, molecular biology, and immunology, particularly focusing on ACE2-based therapeutics for SARS-CoV-2, interferon signaling pathways, and computational models for antiviral design.
Scientific awards include:
- NIH National Research Service Award
- NIH Outstanding New Investigator Award
- American Cancer Society Postdoctoral Fellowship
- Schweppe Foundation Career Development Award
- Burroughs Wellcome Fund Pathogenesis Finalist
Dr. Randall serves as principal investigator on multiple NIH grants related to RNA virus replication and lipid metabolism in viral pathogenesis. His lab maintains collaborations across virology, immunology, and biomedical engineering disciplines.
