Dr. George Miller is the John F. Enders Professor of Pediatrics at the Yale School of Medicine, where he specializes in Pediatric Infectious Diseases and Epidemiology. His laboratory's research focuses on the mechanisms underlying latency and lytic replication of oncogenic herpesviruses, including Epstein-Barr virus and Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus. Dr. Miller's current experiments investigate how viral cellular transcription factors selectively bind to methylated DNA to control gene expression of both viral and cellular origins. He aims to develop new classes of antiviral agents to inhibit reactivation of Epstein-Barr virus during lytic infection. With a clinical specialty in Pediatrics and Infectious Disease Medicine, Dr. Miller is pivotal in the treatment and prevention of viral diseases in children. His extensive research directories highlight a commitment to understanding human tumor viruses and their implications in conditions like AIDS-related lymphomas. Dr. Miller has collaborated with multiple researchers and published numerous papers on topics such as poliovirus, measles, and HIV, firmly establishing his prominence in the fields of virology and pediatrics.
