Hara Prasad Misra (b. 1940 - ) is an American biochemist and Professor Emeritus of Biomedical Sciences and Pathology in the Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine at Virginia Tech.[1] Misra is currently serving as Vice President for Research & Graduate Studies at the Virginia College of Osteopathic Medicine in Blacksburg, VA. Dr. Misra is a well known teacher of undergraduate, graduate and DVM professional students for a period spanning over 30 years.

Misra has served as the principal investigator (PI) on more than $2 million in grants from federal funding agencies while also serving on a number of national and international panels and committees related to his field of expertise in free radical toxicology. He has authored or coauthored more than 130 chapters and scientific articles in peer reviewed publications and has given over 200 presentations and seminars at national and international scientific meetings. According to Google Scholar, he has over 8700 citations in the scientific literature, including 1 paper with >3000 citations, and an H-index of 44.[2]

Current Research

Aging and Neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer Disease and Parkinson's Disease): Role of environmental pollutants, molecular mechanism(s), and dietary regulation.

Initiated free radical research during post doctoral studies and has continued research interest in the areas of free radicals and oxidative stress in biology and medicine. His lab is active in studying the health effects associated with free radicals of oxygen, oxidative stress and role of antioxidants in patho-physiological processes. Recently, he has shown that mixtures of pesticides potentiate the immunotoxicity in C57Bl/6 mice and free radicals of oxygen are involved in this process. In addition, his lab is active in studying the mechanism of action of pesticides and MPTP in developing Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Diseases.
