Author Information
Erwin Schurr is a distinguished researcher affiliated with the Program in Infectious Diseases and Immunity in Global Health at the Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre in Montreal, QC, Canada. His research focuses on infectious diseases, particularly in understanding the genetic and immunological aspects of diseases such as tuberculosis, leprosy, and COVID-19.Research Contributions
Erwin Schurr has made significant contributions to the field of infectious diseases, with a particular emphasis on the genetic underpinnings and immune responses to pathogens like Mycobacterium tuberculosis and the implications of these factors in diseases such as leprosy and COVID-19. In 2021 alone, Schurr participated in a variety of studies, including genome-wide association studies for tuberculosis resistance, investigations into the genetic factors affecting early onset leprosy, and the exploration of epigenetic responses in HIV-infected individuals. Furthermore, his work extends to utilizing systems biology approaches to propose therapeutic interventions for severely ill COVID-19 patients and identifying biomarkers for adverse COVID-19 outcomes.Aliases
Erwin Schurr is also known by several aliases, including E. A. Schurr, E Schurr, and Erwin. Schurr. These variations are often used in different publications and databases.Publication and Citation Metrics
