Yuan-Siao Chen studies antiviral drug discovery, focusing on finding and characterizing compounds that block viral replication for viruses such as SARS-CoV-2 (the virus behind COVID-19) and enteroviruses (a group that causes hand-foot-and-mouth disease and respiratory illness). The work combines cell-based experiments and biochemical assays to test candidate inhibitors, including natural compounds and enzyme-targeting molecules. Earlier research also examined cellular stress responses and their role in kidney cell damage and muscle wasting.
