Research
Warren has been a researcher and academic at the University of Otago in Dunedin, New Zealand spanning 57 years. For 30 years he researched the fundamental mechanisms of how the ribosome mediates protein synthesis, and how this biology and the genetic code arose 3-4 billion years ago. He demonstrated the translational stop signal is a sequence element and not simply the triplet codon shown in the genetic code, and co-discovered a new rare mechanism of gene regulation, translational frameshifting used commonly by viruses and as a vulnerable point in the biology of HIV-1. This led to studies of unexplained human functions and diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and memory, and a natural human brain protein with strong therapeutic potential.
His most recent research programme initiated in 2012 has been on debilitating post-viral fatigue syndromes, Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) and Long COVID, focussing on preclinical studies with New Zealand patients to understand their pathophysiology and the underlying molecular mechanisms. He received the Distinguished Research Medal of the University of Otago in 2006, the Rutherford Medal of the Royal Society of NZ in 2010, a research excellence award from the Health Research Council of New Zealand in 2016 and the Marsden Medal from the New Zealand Association of Scientists in 2018. He was awarded a Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit (CNZM), for services to Science in 2011.
