About
Ana Angulo’s pioneering work in virology has fundamentally shaped our understanding of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), the largest and most complex member of the herpesvirus family. Her landmark 1999 study, cited over 250 times, introduced the first viral DNA microarray—a revolutionary tool that enabled simultaneous expression profiling of nearly all known HCMV open reading frames. This breakthrough allowed researchers to map the kinetic classes of viral gene expression and assess drug sensitivity with unprecedented precision, laying the groundwork for modern functional genomics in virology. Angulo’s contributions have been instrumental in advancing antiviral drug development and elucidating the intricate regulatory networks of HCMV, a pathogen of critical importance in immunocompromised patients and congenital infections. Her work remains a cornerstone for scientists exploring host-pathogen interactions, demonstrating how innovative genomic technologies can unlock the secrets of even the most complex viral genomes.
