J. Thomas Parsons is affiliated with the University of Virginia in the United States. Their research primarily spans the field of Medicine, with a focus on several subfields including Epidemiology, Infectious Diseases, and Molecular Biology.
Their work addresses topics such as Respiratory viral infections research, Viral Infections and Vectors, Virology and Viral Diseases, and CRISPR and Genetic Engineering.
Among recent publications attributed to Parsons, one titled "Human Parainfluenza Virus (HPIV) Detection in Hospitalized Children with Acute Respiratory Tract Infection in the Western Cape, South Africa during 2014-2022 Reveals a Shift in Dominance of HPIV 3 and 4 Infections" was published in 2023 in the journal Diagnostics. This paper examines shifts in the prevalence of distinct HPIV types in a pediatric population over several years.
Parsons is also associated as a co-author with other research papers published in 2025, related to multiomic CRISPR screening techniques in single-cell biology. These include "Simultaneous single-cell CRISPR, RNA, and ATAC-seq enables multiomic CRISPR screens to identify gene regulatory relationships" in bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), and "Simultaneous capture of single cell RNA-seq, ATAC-seq, and CRISPR perturbation enables multiomic screens to identify gene regulatory relationships" published in Cell Reports Methods. These contributions explore advanced integrated methods for gene regulatory analysis using CRISPR perturbations at the single-cell level.
Frequent co-authors working with Parsons include Kaivalya Shevade, Yeqing Angela Yang, Kevin Feng, K. Mäder, and Volkan Sevi̇m, each appearing in multiple joint publications.
