Sergei A. Raev

Sergei A. Raev studies how viruses that cause intestinal disease, particularly rotaviruses, interact with gut cells and gut bacteria, including how these interactions relate to malnutrition and stunted growth in children. He also has past work characterizing veterinary viruses affecting pigs, such as PRRSV and porcine circovirus, particularly strains circulating in Russia. His research combines lab models like gut organoids ('mini-guts' grown from tissue) and gnotobiotic (germ-free) animals to understand virus-host-microbe interactions.

Publication output has grown over the last decade, rising from about one paper per year in 2017-2019 to roughly 3-5 per year since 2022.
