Biography

Dr Stray obtained his undergraduate training at the University of Melbourne in Australia, and his PhD from the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) studying influenza virus receptors under Dr Gillian Air. He did postdoctoral training in B cell development at the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation (OMRF) with Dr Don Capra, and in assembly of hepatitis B virus (HBV) capsids with Dr Adam Zlotnick at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center (OUHSC). Since joining the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at UMMC in 2006, his laboratory has studied the evolution of viruses such as influenza and SARS-CoV-2. Most recently, his studies have focused on using viruses as therapeutics to treat cancer.
Dr Stray is also the Course Director for Medical Microbiology and Immunology (Micro 611/701), Dental Microbiology and Immunology (Dent 641) and Fundamental Microbiology and Immunology (Micro 741). He is an award-winning teacher, having been honored by the Carl G Evers Society (Hall of Fame), University of Mississippi Alumni Association Medical Chapter (Preclinical Professor of the Year), and received the Regions T.E.A.C.H. prize in 2021. Medical Microbiology and Immunology, directed by Dr Stray, has ben designated M2 Course of the year by the Carl G Evers Society in on five occasions since 2011.
