Bernard Moss - Infectious Diseases

Author Information

Bernard Moss is a prominent researcher in the field of viral diseases, affiliated with the Laboratory of Viral Diseases at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the NIH, located in Bethesda, Maryland, USA. His research primarily focuses on poxviruses and their interactions with host organisms, contributing significantly to our understanding of viral pathogenesis and vaccine development.

Research Contributions

Bernard Moss has made substantial contributions to the field of virology, particularly in understanding the mechanisms of poxvirus entry, replication, and host interaction. His recent works emphasize the development of vaccines and the investigation of viral adaptations that contribute to virulence. In 2021, Moss explored the role of gene capture and loss in orthopoxviruses, as well as the development of vaccine vectors that inhibit SARS-CoV-2 replication. His research extends into the practical implications of smallpox eradication, focusing on variola virus models and vaccine-related side effects.
