William J Muller, MD, PhD
Associate Professor of Pediatrics (Infectious Diseases)
Focus of Work
Bio
My primary clinical interest is in infections in immunocompromised patients. I also study the pathogenesis of viral encephalitis, using models which focus on host-pathogen interactions in neurologic disease due to herpes simplex virus in newborns. I am involved in clinical trials, development of vaccine candidates, and on the use of HSV as oncolytic virotherapy.
