Harry B. Greenberg

Advisor at Vaxart

Harry B. Greenberg, M.D., the Joseph D. Grant Professor in the School of Medicine and Associate Dean for Research at Stanford University, was the lead inventor of the first-generation vaccine for rotavirus, a severe diarrheal disease that kills between 300,000 and 400,000 children each year in the developing world.  

Dr. Greenberg’s current interests are in pathogenic viruses that infect the GI tract, liver, and respiratory tract. His primary focus is on molecular mechanisms of pathogenesis, viral determinants of protective immunity, the molecular basis of host range, virulence and tissue tropism, vaccine development, viral immunology, and epidemiology with specific emphasis on the role of enteric viruses in less developed countries.
