Louis Mansky, PhD, is a professor and the director of the Institute for Molecular Virology at the University of Minnesota, which broadly unites researchers involved in studies involving viruses. He is a molecular virologist who has been engaged in virology research for over 35 years. The past three decades have been dedicated to the study of human retroviruses. This has been focused on HIV and the closely related human T-cell leukemia virus (HTLV), a cancer-causing human retrovirus. His research group has also worked on hepatitis B virus (a cause of hepatocellular carcinoma), and in the past year has pivoted to conduct research on SARS-CoV-2.
