These Viruses Are Forever: Consequences of Retroviral DNA Integration to Aids and Evolution
Our research interests revolve around obtaining a better understanding of the interaction of retroviruses with their host cells and organisms. We use simple retroviruses (avian and murine viruses) as well as HIV to elucidate the nature of the retrovirus-receptor interaction; control of viral gene expression; mechanism of retroviral genetic variation; and evolution of the host-virus relationship, as revealed by the fossil record provided by endogenous proviruses found in the normal DNA of all vertebrates and many other species.For more information go tohttps://oir.nih.gov/walsAir date: 3/16/2021 3:00:00 PM (Source: Videocast - All Events)

COVID 19 Vaccine Development
My laboratory focuses on studying the immunology and virology of HIV-1 infection and developing novel vaccine strategies. I have also recently demonstrated the therapeutic efficacy of potent monoclonal antibodies and the early seeding of the viral reservoir. My laboratory received three NIH U19 Integrated Preclinical/Clinical AIDS Vaccine Development (IPCAVD) program grants in 2005, 2008, and 2012 to construct alternative serotype adenovirus vaccine vectors, to explore their immunogenicity and protective efficacy in rhesus monkeys, and to advance optimal vaccine candidates into clinical trials. Four phase 1 clinical trials...

The Case for BK Polyomavirus as a Cause of Bladder Cancer
NCI ’ s Center for Cancer Research (CCR) Grand Rounds
Dr. Buck ’ s lab studies polyomaviruses. A great majority of healthy adults chronically shed
polyomavirus virions in their urine and from the surface of their skin. Although these lifelong infections generally aren't known to cause symptoms in healthy individuals, under conditions of immune impairment polyomaviruses can cause disease. For example, BK polyomavirus (BKV) causes kidney and bladder damage in organ transplant patients, while its close relative JCV causes a lethal brain disease in patients on immunosuppressive therapies and in individuals suffering from ...
