BIOGRAPHY

Dr. Barry Margulies received B.S. at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Applied Biological Sciences, where he did research with Drs. Eyal Ron and Robert Langer in controlled release technology. He earned his Ph.D. at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in the Biochemistry, Cellular, and Molecular Biology Program under the tutelage of Dr. Wade Gibson, where he studied the G protein-coupled receptors encoded by human cytomegalovirus. He did his post-doctoral studies also at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine (Division of Comparative Medicine), with Dr. Janice Clements, studying CD4-independent entry of human and simian immunodeficiency viruses. He was a professor at Towson University from 2001-2021, where he established the Towson University Herpes Virus Lab. His research encompassed studies in the molecular biology of human cytomegalovirus and new methods for the long-term prevention of recurrent outbreaks of herpes simplex viruses-1 and -2, varicella zoster virus, and feline herpes virus-1. He is currently working at the NIH in the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases in the Division of Extramural Affairs.
