Overview

Magnus Gisslén is affiliated with Sahlgrenska University Hospital in Sweden and has contributed extensively to the fields of medicine, particularly in infectious diseases and neurology. Their research spans multiple key topics including HIV research and treatment, COVID-19 clinical research, and long-term effects of COVID-19.

Their publication record includes significant studies on COVID-19 and its neurological impacts, such as the 2020 paper "Neurochemical evidence of astrocytic and neuronal injury commonly found in COVID-19" published in Neurology. In the same year, they contributed to research on antibody responses with "Serum-IgG responses to SARS-CoV-2 after mild and severe COVID-19 infection and analysis of IgG non-responders" in PLoS ONE. Further work on neurological injury related to COVID-19 appeared in 2021 with "Neurochemical signs of astrocytic and neuronal injury in acute COVID-19 normalizes during long-term follow-up" in EBioMedicine. Their research also extends into environmental surveillance of SARS-CoV-2, shown in the 2020 publication "Surveillance of wastewater revealed peaks of SARS-CoV-2 preceding those of hospitalized patients with COVID-19" in Water Research. Additionally, Gisslén contributed to HIV treatment guidelines, notably with the 2020 paper "2019 update of the European AIDS Clinical Society Guidelines for treatment of people living with HIV version 10.0" in HIV Medicine.
