Congratulations to Dr. Carol A. Carter, SUNY Distinguished Professor in the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at the Stony Brook University Renaissance School of Medicine (RSOM), who was recently elected aa a member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences (NAS.

The NAS is made up of the country’s leading researchers, who are elected in recognition of their distinguished and continuing achievements in original research. Election is considered one of the highest honors that a scientist can receive.

Dr. Carter is best known as an early pioneer in HIV research. At the onset of the AIDS pandemic, she advanced understanding of the viral-encoded protease and purified the viral capsid protein for structural and biochemical studies. She has also conducted research on Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus Virus-2 (SARS CoV-2), pathogens causing organ transplant rejection and COVID-19, respectively.

The Center for Biotechnology has had supported Dr. Carter's interests in exploring the potential commercial applications of her research through our NIH-REACH program and Long Island Bioscience Hub (LIBH).
