Kevin A. Cassady's research focuses on using engineered viruses (oncolytic herpes simplex virus) to treat cancers such as glioma and malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors, often in combination with immune-modulating drugs or CAR-T cell therapy. His work spans laboratory studies of how tumor cells resist viral infection, combination-therapy strategies, and mathematical modeling of treatment dynamics, as well as some public health surveillance work on pediatric influenza-related neurological complications.
