Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Dr. Walter Atwood's research encompasses diverse areas, from viral pathogenesis to wireless communication technologies. His work on polyomaviruses, particularly the JC polyomavirus (JCPyV), seeks to elucidate mechanisms of infection and explore potential therapeutic interventions for progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). Recent publications have examined the complexities of JCPyV infection, including receptor-dependent and -independent mechanisms, as well as the biogenesis of associated extracellular vesicles. Atwood's research has also investigated the antiviral effects of compounds like teriflunomide on JCPyV. Furthermore, he contributes to studies on plant viruses and explores innovations in wireless networks, including energy harvesting, full-duplex communication, and antenna design.
