Hollis O'Neal

Hollis O'Neal is a Senior Professor at Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center, New Orleans. His research focuses on critical care, sepsis, and emergency medicine, with a specific emphasis on the clinical implementation of cellular host-response diagnostics for sepsis risk stratification in the emergency department. His recent work evaluates the impact of these novel host-response tests on clinical decision-making, SEP-1 compliance, hospital-free days, and sepsis mortality across multiple health-system EDs. He also investigates temporal trends of host-response biomarkers compared to traditional inflammatory markers, contributing to the advancement of precision medicine in infectious diseases and respiratory medicine.
